Why The Cool Kids Don't use Erlang – Talk at Erlang User Conf 2014
- ljosa 12y agoSo, why don't they?
- dozzie 12y agoBecause of: * documentation hard to dig through for a newcommer * little tutorials and articles * small adoption (which is a circular reason, small adoption leads to small adoption) * difficulty to find programmers to carry on the project if Erlang was chosen (caused by small adoption) * lack of established universal build tool (rebar is often said to be too Basho-specific) * lack of package manager/market (think of CPAN, PyPI or rubygems)
