Thanks! In my head (from reading articles) it seems like Phoenix/elixir is the RoR/Ruby combo for the web2.0. Now that the internet has reached scale seems like a great idea for your tools to just automatically be ready for that /shrug

I thought we were beyond Web 2.0 :D

Jokes aside, I understand what you mean, many Rubyists have either migrated to or use Elixir as well. I don't know if it has fulfilled its promise entirely (because despite the nice syntax, it is indeed harder to learn) but I'm a fan of Erlang and the OTP and its concurrency model so I can definitely see the appeal!

Have fun!
