Another recent Elixir / BEAM convert here. I have touched on a few languages in recent years (Scala, Haskell, Rust) and Elixir is the first that has really got to sit up and take notice. Coming from pretty strict OOP I have found it quite hard, but ultimately it has really got me to sit up and take notice. Id also like to mention Gleam[1] which is a type-safe language running on the BEAM. It's equally friendly and enjoyable to use. The community has also been very welcoming. Also recommend the Thinking Elixir podcast[2} which is a joy to listen to (I am about 25 episodes in so far) [1] https://github.com/gleam-lang/gleam https://github.com/gleam-lang/gleam [2] https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/ https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/
