Elixir was the most pleasant experience I’ve had learning a new language. I really enjoy the ergonomics of pattern matching and the pipe operator. Really wish I had an opportunity to use it professionally.

I agree, so many of the idioms (tuple returns into pattern matching, comfortable lambdas, DI through behaviours) all just felt like a breath of fresh air.

It feels like the language was designed to be as good as any other language you've learned.
