Wes Talk’s Elixir

• Erlang and the BEAM VM
• The Actor Model and OTP
• WhatsApp’s secret weapon
• https://elixir-lang.org/

Elixir is a dynamic, functional language designed for building scalable and maintainable applications.

Elixir leverages the Erlang VM, known for running low-latency, distributed and fault-tolerant systems, while also being successfully used in web development and the embedded software domain.

To cope with failures, Elixir provides supervisors which describe how to restart parts of your system when things go awry, going back to a known initial state that is guaranteed to work.
