Development

Elixir is a modern, functional, concurrent programming language built on top of the Erlang VM. It takes advantages of Erlang's rock-solid fault-tolerance and scalability while also introducing cleaner and more maintainable syntax. Elixir is well-suited for building distributed, fault-tolerant applications.
