Elixir is amazing. Had a stab at it back in 2018, then shifted to work with other traditional langs/stacks, but Elixir has always stayed in the back of my head teasing me. It's an elegant language, that you can see that the authors have put effort in keeping it lean, powerful, expressive. Phoenix (which is the goto web framework) may seem magical in the beginning, but once you dive in you realize that there is no magic, it's all there explicitly in modules (well maybe for macros which do feel magical). What I was missing back in 2018 is IDE support which was iffy. I wonder how that changed recently, if anyone who knows cares to share? |

If you're a Jetbrains addict, there's this IDE extension which has worked well for me: https://github.com/KronicDeth/intellij-elixir
