   I use Tower and I love it. I've been using it for 2 years now and I'm so glad I paid for it. It has been so critical my git workflow.

   In what way? The latest Sarafi Development Preview implements 100% of ES6 features which no other browser has done yet. And as far as I know, I haven't ran into any CSS features that Safari doesn't support recently when doing fron

   True. That bullet was more of my opinion of disliking the memory usage the JVM uses as well as my personal preference of VM. BEAM has many great advantages such as fault tolerance and multi-node distribution built in. This allows concurrenc

   I used to do Scala prior to coming to Elixir, mainly by using Play Framework to create web apps. I can tell you that I love Elixir and that I will not be going back to Scala. I miss nothing from Scala. * Pattern matching in Elixir is superi

   I use Ghost on Digital Ocean with a $5 VM. The writing interface is very clean and simple. Plus it's very nice to write in Markdown and see an unstyled real-time preview of the content. Ghost fulfills everything I'm looking for in

   I started using Dokku on Digital Ocean. They have a one-click install which makes it super easy to set up. Your projects can use the same buildpacks that you'd use on Heroku so there isn't much you will have to change within your

   I can't speak about experiences with Ruby/Rails since I don't use that stack but I can give you advice about both Scala and Elixir. I used to be a Java programmer and fell in love with Scala and functional programming. Scala

    I recommend the books Programming Elixir and Elixir in Action. The latter is a little more advanced in terms of expecting some prior knowledge in functional programming but is a fantastic book nonetheless as well as a great resource for a b

    I haven't used Erlang but I've been using Elixir daily for the past 5 months. Coming from Scala, it has been wonderful with pattern matching everywhere the syntax is very easy to get used to. The Elixir docs are very amazing as we

    I transitioned from being a scala dev using play to using elixir with Phoenix. I'm much happier and I find Elixir to be fantastic. There's no going back for me.

    I was going to use Mandrill/Mailchimp until this fiasco. I discovered SendGrid, which has quite a lot of great features. Their free tier is pretty generous with 12k emails a month. I recommend them to people looking for an alternative

    I have read most of Functional Programming in Scala. It is a very good and well thought out book. I understand FP concepts way more now. The books has practice exercises you can do as you read through the it and solutions are in a Github re

    I agree. Intellij and Scala work very well together.

    Yes it does. But even after knowing some basic Scala, I find it significantly easier to work with Play on the Scala side. It feels more of a first-class citizen. However, this is just my personal opinion.
