Elixir, a dynamic general purpose programming language designed to build scalable concurrent applications with a beautiful functional syntax.
It was created by Jose Valim and first released in 2012, and today it consistently ranks among the most loved programming languages.
It runs on top of the Erlang Beam virtual machine, which itself is developed in the 19 eighties to scale the massive demands of phone switching, which it did with extreme reliability and fault tolerance.
Elixir was created to make this powerful technology accessible to the modern developer.
It's dynamically typed with a minimal Ruby inspired syntax, making it more approach bold and statically typed functional languages like Haskell.
However, because it's compiled to Beam bytecode, it delivers better performance and scalability compared to interpreted languages.
It's used by companies like Discord to handle massive amounts of concurrent users, by Motorola to build fault tolerant and communication systems by Pinterest to scale up their real time notification system, and the Elixir based Phoenix framework is responsible for thousands of full stack web applications.
To get started, install Erlang and Elixir, then create a file ending in dotexs.
To create a variable, give it a name followed by a value.
View.
It's dynamic, so no type annotations are necessary.
Now print it to the standard output with I o puts.
And like Ruby, parentheses are usually optional.
Alternatively, you might create an atom, which is a constant whose value is its own name.
Anonymous functions can be created with the fn keyword, which can then be assigned to variables or passed around to other functions.
And you can even simplify this expression further using the ampersand shorthand.
When working with function expressions, You can use the pipe operator to pass the value of one expression to another without the need for deeply nested function calls, create a list of items with kits or create a map to represent key value pairs.
The equal sign can be used to assign variables, but it's actually called the match operator to support pattern matching features.
For example, we might destructure a list into a set of variables.
If a pattern doesn't match, it will raise an error, and this behavior can be used to implement advanced control flow logic.
If and its inverse and less can be used for basic situations, but the case keyword allows us to compare a value against many patterns until we find a matching one.
Application code can be organized and shared with modules.
Inside a module, we can define multiple functions, But one of the killer features of this language is its concurrency model, thanks to the Erlang VM.

The Elixir programming language is designed to build scalable, low-pressure, concurrent applications that run on top of the Erlang Beam virtual machine. It delivers better performance and scalability than interpreted languages, and is used by companies like discord to handle massive amounts of concurrent users. The language is also designed to be flexible and can be organized and shared with modules, and has a concurrency model that allows for high-performance fault tolerant execution.
Elixir in 100 Seconds
Elixir is a dynamic functional programming language built on top of the Erlang BEAM virtual machine. It is excels at building concurrent fault-tolerant applications at scale.
