I worked with Python, PHP, JavaScript and some others languages (nothing to edgy, just "normal" applications) and I find Elixir one of the best languages to use on daily bases.
The syntax is so darn clean and the features of the language help so much to reduce code complexity and improve code readability that is insane!
I really miss some of theses functionalities, like pipelines, withs and mostly pattern matching, when working with other languages.
Maybe the lack of use is because Elixir is kind a recent language (it's out there since 2012) compared to others and is quite different and challenging to learn.
And, as a Brazilian 🇧🇷, I have to mention that is pretty cool to see such a amazing language be created by a compatriot, there is not a lot of things to be proud of in here...
Any way, I wrote this post: Learning Elixir with PHP help my focus was to make the transition from OOP languages to functional programming a bit easier.
Hope you like!
