I’ve been switching between different LSP implementations for Elixir—ElixirLS, Lexical, next-ls—and have been following Expert for a while. Really looking forward to trying it out!

That said, the only thing that feels a bit off to me is the name “Expert.” It comes across slightly arrogant or presumptuous—like it’s implying it’s the only “expert” in the room. Maybe something more neutral would’ve been better?

Still, excited to see what the official tooling brings!

It's not an AI tool. It's an LSP. It is the expert in the room, because it's not a random word generator, not smart, it just follows the rules that the language has.

How did you find out about it in the first place? I remember seeing the Elixir blog post announcing the LSP project ages ago and then nothing since then.

Do you frequent elixirforum.com? That’s where the elixir community resides. Jose and Chris post frequently there. As well as maintainers of popular libraries.

I found the name to be perfect. Just a little fun. It also goes with the ex-prefix you see in libs sometimes.

You're overthinking it. I'd rather have interesting than milquetoast.

How about "Fairly Knowledgeable, Always Humbly Ready to Learn from Others"?

FKAHRLO for short.
