    As someone who recently (about 6 months ago) started a job developing a codebase that uses Elixir/Phoenix framework for its backend, it’s been eminently pleasant to work with and I can’t help but do a little evangelizing!

    We’re nowhere near the scale or complexity of Discord, but Elixir and all the Erlang/OTP goodies it builds upon nonetheless feel like the “right” choice for almost any modern web project.
