Elixir is truly exceptional. Its popularity has soared ​since its inception in 2012, when José Valim ​pioneered it for a research and development project. ​This surge in popularity is due to its dynamic and ​functional nature, which establishes it as the go-to ​language for developing maintainable and reliable ​software.

According to surveys (StackOverflow & Curiosum) and ​through speaking to developers and enthusiasts ​alike, it’s now considered one of the most loved and ​pleasant to use programming languages, evolving ​through great tooling like Phoenix LiveView, Nx, and ​Livebook.
