Eternity Elixir

If you're new to Elixir, you'll get step-by-step guidance in an engaging format you won't find anywhere else. If you have experience with Elixir, you'll gain a deeper understanding of things you've been taking for granted and fill in any knowledge gaps.

Авторы расскажут, как Elixir сочетает в себе надежность языка функционального программирования Erlang с подходом, который больше похож Ruby, а также мощную поддержку макросов для метапрограммирования.

This book is the introduction to Elixir for experienced programmers, completely updated for Elixir 1.6 and beyond. Explore functional programming without the academic overtones (tell me about monads just one more time). Create concurrent applications, butget them right without all the locking and consistency headaches. Meet Elixir, a modern, functional, concurrent language built on the rock-solid Erlang VM. Elixir's pragmatic syntax and built-in support for metaprogramming will make you productive and keep you interestedfor the long haul. Maybe the time is right for the Next Big Thing. Maybe it's Elixir.

Elixir, based on Erlang's virtual machine and ecosystem, makes it easier to achieve scalability, concurrency, fault tolerance, and high availability goals that are pursued by developers using any programming language or programming paradigm.
