The inconsistency of elixir is what turned me away from it. The author points that out as something to live with, that’s fine. But it’s annoying for me. It reminds me of my time dealing with ruby and rails, and I absolutely hated the billions of ways to do one thing with ”cute” helpers. These days I just pick Go or TS for backend. Go for most things but especially anything performance critical or real time, and TS for anything else that just needs to get done really fast and is just IO bound. Go has only most just one or max 2-3 ways to do something. TS takes the best parts of js and makes them shine brighter. I also don’t see the value of live view. Is it really that superior to just putting together an API or ws connection, and having web/mobile clients consume it? It just sounds like over engineering to be cool to send actual view code instead of a bit of json that updates the UI in place. Would love to discuss further and see if I’m wrong.
