Functional programming is not vastly different from other popular programming languages. There is also a wealth of tutorials, books, and interactive learning resources for Elixir that are up to date. I'm not really sure what you're referring to

More than FP, the parent may have been referring to OTP and how Elixir (Erlang actually) deals with concurrency. It is indeed quite different from other popular languages.

  That said, for a lot of Rails-style CRUD work I think a lot of the OTP stuff can remain murky, at least until you get comfortable with the rest of it.

>I'm not really sure what you're referring to Maybe this is the problem, then. I'm not the only one saying it, it was said in the article and other people are saying it here too. You can pretend a problem doesn't exist, but that doesn't make it true.
