Hey, I’m Gerry from Vancouver Canada. I’ve been programming since the 0.x releases of Rails. Before that mostly C++ and C# in the video game world. I’ve also dabbled in iOS apps with Objective-C.
I have nothing but respect for José and Chris. I remember when I first heard about Elixir in the very early days and thought that he was crazy for taking on such a huge project and yet here we are. I remember Chris giving a demo at some long ago RailsConf and the excitement he had about this new system.
Still learning the details of Elixir and Phoenix but hoping I’ll be able to use this for my next production project.
I’ve lurked on this board for over a year and love the community feel. Reminds me of Rails back in the early days. Appreciate what you all have created here. Elixir has this sweet spot with a strong backing via Erlang so it isn’t going away while still being small enough to feel like a community.

Hello and welcome!
I’m going to drop a link to another thread in this forum. There’s a video linked in the first message. It probably won’t help you in learning anything now yet but I feel it gives a similar experience as entering a dojo for the first time and casually observing a 5th dan black belt executing an amazingly perfect kata with grace and ease..and finding yourself so compelled to learn it that you can’t stop coming back and train the best you can. Hope you will enjoy too:

Hello. I’m Jesse, from Seattle, WA, USA. I’ve been enjoying Elixir for about nine months, now, and it’s been quite a good introduction to functional style programming. I’ve been exploring Phoenix (and LiveView), Absinthe, Ecto, NIFs (Rustler at first, but I just found out about Zigler, so I’ve got to check that out, too), and I’ve also been poking around with Erlang.
Thanks for having such an excellent forum to check for information!

Hello. I’m Jared, from Colorado (presently). I’ve used Erlang as a hobby language since 2007 or so when I read an article in the Communications of the ACM about it. I’ve spent the last month exploring Elixir, with the plan to build some applications in it, specifically with Phoenix (what I’m planning to dive into tonight or tomorrow).
