Elixir is a dynamic, functional language for building scalable and maintainable applications. Elixir strikes a balance between expressiveness and readability. It runs on the Erlang VM, known for creating low-latency, distributed, and fault-tolerant systems. These capabilities allow Elixir developers to be productive in several domains, such as web development, embedded software, data pipelines, and multimedia processing, across a wide range of industries.

I'm currently learning Elixir because of my interest in functional programming and in new ideas for the web that are being introduced by the Phoenix framework. so far, it's been really fun, and I've left some first impressions in a blog post :]
