🔗 My Journey into Elixir/Erlang (Part One)

Recently, I started diving into the world of Elixir and Erlang/OTP. If, like me, you thought these technologies were just "hipster stuff," this post might change your mind.

Why Did I Start Learning It?

I had heard about Elixir before. It occasionally popped up in my feed, but without much impact. It just seemed like another "hipster" language to me.

The turning point came when our tech director at work (shoutout to Dima if you're reading this) launched a full scale campaign promoting the language. He gave such an inspiring speech that I was ready to storm Berlin a second time.
