Agree with Go sentiment. Not only that, it is a great general purpose language that does great with any heavier computational load stuff too.

I do everything with Go and Node+TS. All API services, real time / notifications, and crunchy stuff happens with Go. Node+TS handles anything else for either 3rd party things (usually the node sdk is far superior in terms of documentation and support) or one off scripts.

I've tried phoenix. End of the day I don't want to work with something which is built on something else which I don't know/understand to an even bigger degree. And fwiw, I don't see the point of deep diving into erlang/beam when Go basically does everything plus more, within its boundaries. Reminds me of JVM, you can code all day in Scala (like any junior engineer) but at some point either when shit hits the fan or incompatibility strikes, you need to learn Java and JVM internals.
