summary

Elixir compiles to the BEAM and uses pattern matching, immutable data and actors to get cheap concurrency and fault tolerance, with hot code swapping available but tricky to use. Phoenix and Ecto show practical idioms: composable changesets for validations, server-rendered interactivity via Phoenix LiveView flappy bird demo, and channels that scale — an experiment connects two million WebSocket connections and reportedly has a Wikipedia article delivered to two million subscribers in one second. Companies cited include WhatsApp, Pinterest and Square Enix.
