I have this question when I noticed this in Hacker News https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13247234
The post was written in three years ago and Elixir changed a lot from then. And I noticed Elixir team seems working hard on something like GenStage, Registry and so on.
Three goals, http://elixir-lang.org/blog/2013/08/08/elixir-design-goals/
Maybe focus on productivity. GenStage seems for concurrent.
I knew it. And it’s the post referred in the HN post.
