Hello! I'm Alex. Mostly I program in Ruby and a little JavaScript, and sometimes I do Clojure for fun. I just started experimenting with Elixir, which seems really interesting so far.
Yeah that's exactly how I got interested in Elixir! I wanted to pick up another functional language that was also on the more practical side, and there's been a lot of talk about Elixir in the Ruby community over the past year. I'm halfway through the KV tutorial and it seems great so far. I've been trying to come up with a good project to make with it soon.
Awesome, I'd love to read a post about your future project! It's interesting how similar the language's syntax is to Ruby's. I wonder if the language will pick up and become one of the more popular server-side languages to use.

I've heard Elixir is great for messaging apps and integrating with a Rails app. What got you into Elixir?
