- anamoulous 10y agoWhat benefit does Elixir provide to content companies (50% of these examples) given the low technical requirements of their product?
- metabren 10y agoI think I remember a Bleacher Report engineer talking about this on an Elixir podcast. They use it to power their push notifications and pride themselves in being consistently the fastest among their competitors.
- ghayes 10y agoPostmates [0] for a variety of internal services. It's been rock solid and easy to ramp new team members on to. We do have a good number of in-house erlang folk, too.

- iagooar 10y agoMe. Feel free to ask me anything.
- _asummers 10y agoUs as well, I'll answer what I can!
- babyrainbow 10y agoHow good is the "dynamic but functional and immutable" nature of the language good at catching potential bugs?
- ghayes 10y agoThe immutable nature helps with 1) reasoning locally (you can always understand exactly what happens in a function by reading the function itself) and 2) debugging. Additionally, dialyzer provides a very nice (optional) typing system for erlang / Elixir.
- _asummers 10y agoAnd with the new deprecation in 1.4 of bare words, a disambiguation goes away where when looking at a function you sometimes had to go "is this a variable or a function". Now functions with 0 args have parens, always. I've found the locality of everything in the function that you mentioned helps IMMENSELY in refactoring. Just give a function a namespace and call it, and then figure out where it actually belongs later as you figure out your implementation.
- amorphid 10y agoNot Phoenix specifically, but here's a growing list of companies that use Elixir. https://github.com/doomspork/elixir-companies/ https://github.com/doomspork/elixir-companies/
- skrebbel 10y agoWe do at TalkJS (https://talkjs.com https://talkjs.com). It's a pluggable user-to-user messaging service, and the concurrency that Phoenix and notably Elixir offer have been really helpful in keeping our infrastructure simple.
- AtroxDev 10y agoChangelog.com is using Phoenix. They also recently gone open source: https://changelog.com/posts/changelog-is-open-source https://changelog.com/posts/changelog-is-open-source
- ShaneWilton 10y agoTinfoil Security! All of our release engineering is orchestrated through a small Phoenix app that calls out to docker images to perform various types of deployments (Heroku, EC2, ECS, building docker images, etc). I'll probably do a write-up on it at some point, because it is now trivial for anyone on the team to deploy any of our services to any environment (or a new one!), and to integrate new services into the platform.
