Created Elixir — Ruby's ergonomics on Erlang's fault-tolerant VM.

Created Elixir

Created Elixir (2012) — brought modern syntax and tools to Erlang's VM — after being a Rails core member who hit Ruby's concurrency limits.\n\nPhoenix and LiveView are the ecosystem he enabled; 'Elixir in Action' is the book.
