Itās been quite time ago that I have joined this forum, but I never introduced myself here, so here I go!
My name is IvĆ”n GonzĆ”lez, Iām a passionate software developer from the north of Spain, interested in all kind of technologies. I have been working with Ruby and Rails almost my entire professional career, but last year I started to switch into Elixir and Phoenix, and now I use them in my current company to develop new products and I couldnāt be more happy.
You can find me over the internet as dreamingechoes, e.g. on Twitter or Github.
I used to write blog posts about software development and that kind of stuff some time ago but now Iām finishing my new website so I hope to put some content on the internet again ASAP and contribute on this amazing community.
Hi there, Iām MichaÅ Turek (Slayful) from Poland, I used to consider myself a Java developer at heart, but now that Iām exploring Elixir Iām not that sureā¦
Iām Jason, and Iām a Elixir developer hailing from Honolulu, Hawaii. Came to Elixir/Phoenix by way Rails and Iām super glad to be here and to be able to work on production Elixir code!
My name is Adolfo Neto. I am an Associate Professor at Federal University of Technology - ParanĆ”. I live in Curitiba, Brazil. I am a big fan of Lisp, Clojure and Prolog. As Elixir is based on Erlang (whose syntax is inspired by Prolgg), is a functional language and was created by a Brazilian, I had to try to learn it. I am reading Programming Elixir.
Hi, my name is Szymon and Iām from Poland. I come from Ruby / Rails world and I simultaneously learn and use Elixir / Phoenix / MongoDB stack in my current API project for about 3 months now. It was preety tough at the beginnig, especially without any prior experience in functional programming, Erlang or even Mongo database, but now I really starting to like that language as well as functional paradigm. Currently going through āProgramming Elixirā book.
Iāve decided to pick up Elixir due to it using the Erlang VM. Iāve wanted to learn Erlang for quite some time but never gotten around to it due to the more limited scope itās useful for. Elixir, combined with Phoenix, is rather user friendly in comparison and Iām currently using it to build a web app.
Hi,
I am Valentin from Graz. I am studying āInformationmanagementā at a University of applied science. I came to Elixir through my master thesis I am currently writing. It is about business process management and how to implement a special kind of runtime for them.
I really like programming in Elixir. It just seems more natural to me than typical OO languages (I mostly programmed in Java before that). With Java i always had the feeling that most systems are overengineered and more complicated than needed. Lets see if my own hype about Elixir will settle down or not
