About Elixir

Elixir is a functional programming language with superior concurrency primitives, distributed computation and fault tolerance capabilities based on Erlang/OTP. Personally, I am really happy with my bet on Elixir to build cryptocurrency related apps and strongly recommend to learn more about Elixir and Erlang ecosystem.
