I did Elixir for a year or so. I have to agree. I had to routinely jump up several layers of call sites to understand what I could do with the arguments.
Development where teams share stuff benefits so much from static types. For teams, the best I have experienced is Go.
The BEAM is great and all other systems are just partial and poor implementations of it, as they say. But k8s does a lot. If I could get typing that actually helped me, like in Go, Elixir would jump up my recommendation list
- te_chris 2y agoWorth pointing out typing is coming in rapidly, built into the compiler. It’s already doing some checks, and 1.19 is actively adding more. See: https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/main/gradual-set-theoretic-types.html https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/main/gradual-set-theoretic-types.h...
