What was the problem? You can code in elixir in a style where you basically get ~80% static typing using structs everywhere.
I haven't gotten a runtime type error in years.
- eropple 6y agoI like the BEAM and I like the spirit of Elixir, but I find it really hard to write correctly and quickly. For me it's the weak inference and autocomplete. Ecto is pretty cool, but Ecto doesn't help me do the right thing in the way that even something like TypeORM (not my favorite database layer) does without much effort on my part.
