Curiosum Elixir Survey 2024

Hey everyone! We’re excited to announce that the annual Curiosum Elixir Survey is back for another round! (link)

Last year, we launched this survey for the first time (link to previous edition: Elixir Survey 2023 | Curiosum), and thanks to your enthusiasm, we gathered an amazing 400 responses! With your feedback, we improved last year’s questions and added a few more that should be very interesting to explore.

We’re looking to gather insights from the Elixir community on topics like:

  • Whether companies and developers are choosing Elixir for new projects
  • The overall sentiment from developers and decision-makers around Elixir—what they love and where they might face challenges
  • The types of languages you’ve used before Elixir and which languages you use in interoperability with Elixir
  • Elixir frameworks and their adoption within the community
  • And much more!

Our goal remains the same: to make this survey better every year and provide valuable insights to the community. Your input really counts, thanks in advance!

Sadly there is no clarification on this field, is 1 or 5 being most satisfied with something?

Thank you for the feedback. I’ve just added the clarification.

As I already replied yesterday under the assumption 5 was satisfied most, I hope I did not skew the results, or anyone else who already participated under one or the other assumption.

I believe most people assumed that “5” represents the highest level of satisfaction. However, next year, we should provide clearer guidance in similar questions to ensure the scale is easy to interpret and everyone understands how to respond :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks for posting the results.

It always saddens me when employers tout how difficult it is to get Elixir devs while on Slack one employer lately announced they got 1000 applications for a position…

But I am guessing those who complain are not the more active ones who go out of their way to find Elixir devs where they frequent.
