# Por que elixir?

Já passei por diversas linguagens e frameworks. PHP, Ruby, Go Lang, C#, etc. Hoje, meu xodó é o Elixir e não devido a surfar na onda do hype (o que acho já deve estar passando do elixir), mas devido a grandes vantagens que ele entrega por padrão. Mas não vai eu que irei te convencer a usar. Vou deixar isso para pessoais mais qualificadas.
