Building Web Applications with Elixir

  Mistake in the "With pattern matching you can save a few lines:" section, the clause matching nil should probably go first, otherwise the user variable ends up being bound to nil.

    Good point, pushing an update.

  @cjwoodward do you see elixir becoming to go to language for an API based web applications with an ember / angular front end?
  • cjwoodward 12y ago
    Absolutely. That is the use case that I am working with and it works really well. As with any new languages/frameworks there are quirks to deal with but I am finding it a joy to work with. The added bonus of working in a new space is you get to contribute back more. I've committed more open source fixes and changes then previously when working with other languages. The eco-system is coming together as well. Check out http://expm.co/ http://expm.co/.
