Experiences and Insights Working with Elixir
_MMCXII is curious about Elixir due to recent job postings for Elixir roles. They inquire about the kinds of applications Elixir excels at, the problems it solves, reasons to choose it over other languages, and tasks it’s less suitable for. The feedback highlights Elixir's strengths in web-related applications, concurrent and resilient processes, and its productivity benefits. There are cautions about memory efficiency and LiveView's complexity, alongside mentions of specific use cases like Nerves for embedded devices and Numerical Elixir for machine learning. Negative feedback touches on inefficiency for CLI tools and native app development.
