I love the new documentation site: https://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/stdlib/lists#duplicate/2

Looks a lot like Elixir's. The previous one was functional, but a little barebones. A little colour, hyperlinking and syntax highlighting goes a long way. Also, navigation seems to be improved. I always lost my way navigating across Erlang modules to find a specific function.

The entire Erlang/OTP ecosystem got a boost of mind share with the explosion in popularity of Elixir, and it's so nice to see it improve at breakneck pace [1], with some cross-pollination between Erlang itself and Elixir. The ideas of Armstrong, Virding and Williams are in many ways far ahead than a lot of mainstream languages, and they were long overdue a revival under the spotlight.

Keep up the good work!

1: yet, it's still the most rock-solid platform to build services upon, and you can quote me on that.

I love that the Erlang guys seem to be so open to Elixir being a big part of their ecosystem even relying on ExDoc for their new documentation system (I think everyone can see it's a big improvement over the brutalist UI that was there before). A lot of software projects would be ego driven rather than pragmatic on something like this.

ExDoc is arguably one of the nicest documentation systems out there, and Erlang moving to it means two things: 1. The Erlang devs do not need to implement and maintain their own anymore. 2. ExDoc will improve faster since people previously working on Erlang’s documentation system shift to it.

It’s really a win for both, and I love it.

It doesn’t just look like Elixir’s docs, Erlang has adopted ExDoc, Elixir’s documentation system.
