Once again, Elixir community takes something and brings it to the next level.
In my opinion Jose Valim is the Linus Torvalds of programming languages, but differently from Linus not only he is a 100x engineer, he's also one of the humblest and kindest person I've ever met (don't get me wrong, I love Linus, but he can be "too honest" at times and comes out as harsh or rude).
From Elixir came Phoenix, from Phoenix came Liveview, from Liveview we got Livebook, iterating from good ideas to quality products like it's an easy task.
Can't wait to see what's the next trick in their sleeve.
