Elixir is for Startups - @ajose01

Why would you want to use (or suggest) Elixir to a startup? Over the past 5 months that’s exactly what we’ve been doing. Transitioning from ruby to elixir has been a great experience, but we’ve noticed unexpected benefits that suit startups perfectly.

Some of the benefits we’ve noted: Uptime, release speed, scaling, onboarding and recruiting.

I’ll share some experiences on how this can be something you can use in your own startup, or pitch to your existing team.

Thanks! Any chance I can be “Angel” instead of “Angle”? Although angle does have a nice ring to it. LOL.

Sorry, I wish I could change it! That’s pulled from the Youtube video itself so you’d have to ask the conference organizers. Although maybe some of them are on the forum.
