Elixir is hardly visible in the jobs market. At least if Indeed.com is to be believed. It's too niche. Clojure is at least as good as Elixir, if not better, and has failed to gain widespread adoption after 8 years since 1.0 so I don't see Elixir going anywhere. There's just too much competition.
- criddell 9y agoCan you recommend one or two language + framework combinations that might be a better choice than RoR?
- cutler 9y agoElixir/Phoenix, Clojure/Luminus, ClojureScript/Macchiato and Scala/Play are arguably better than Rails if you really grok FP but they don't have the community, maturity and adoption that Rails has enjoyed for a long time. If you're ok with OO monoliths Rails is hard to beat.
