Update:
How to use the blogs section
You can post in one of the Official Blog Posts threads (like this one), or, via Devtalk and a new thread will be posted in our #learning-resources:blogs section here for each blog post so long as you have an account with the same primary email address on both forums (if you don’t, it will be cross-posted to our general catch all thread).
Please see this announcement for details: Calling all BEAM Bloggers!
I came across this nice blog post by @devonestes and thought, since our Blog Posts thread is now huge, wouldn’t it be great to have separate threads for specific kinds of blog posts?
Well let’s start with this one! 
If you come across any blog posts that promotes or evangelises (or basically says nice things about Elixir!) please feel free to add them to this thread
