Have you tried Elixir?

I had been doing Ruby for a long time (also Java and Scala before and after that, now Python).

Gave Elixir and Phoenix framework a shot a month ago and it's a breath of fresh air: great language, outstanding tooling.

I've also done a bit of Haskell, OCaml and PureScript within my personal projects. I do miss having a state of the art typing in Elixir, but there is enough in Elixir to keep me happy:

* immutability everywhere

* ridiculously low latencies (not by HFT standards I guess)

* LiveView

* ...many other goodies that come with BEAM

* Tooling
