Abstract:
The Elixir programming language ecosystem has been steadily evolving, celebrating 13 years since its release. Built on solid foundations, Elixir boasts a vibrant and respected global community, evidenced by its many books, resources, and active groups.
Companies that adopted Elixir early are now nearing a decade of using it in production.
At Árvore, a leading Brazilian edtech, we adopted Elixir in 2016 as an alternative to the frameworks available at the time. Since then, it has powered our monolith and one additional service. In this talk, I’ll share our journey with Elixir—how we started, the challenges we faced, and how we’ve grown alongside the language.
Join me to learn what it takes for an edtech company to adopt, maintain, and scale Elixir in production, along with the lessons and strategies we’ve developed to tackle challenges over the past eight years.
