Preface
Since its release in 2011, Elixir has grown to be one of the leading functional programming languages in the world. Many industry trends have contributed to this, especially in areas where this budding language is strong. Insatiable demand for computers with more cores is pushing programming languages toward better concurrency support, and Elixir has a particularly good story here. Explosive growth in the Internet of Things has created a demand for Elixir’s many frameworks for managing, networking, and measuring hardware. A push for more interactive web systems is driving demand for web programming tools like Elixir’s Phoenix. These developments led Groxio to publish a series of Elixir videos, projects, and this book.
