Elixir is Special

Elixir is a functional programming language built on the BEAM, a foundation that's almost 40 years old.

BEAM is a one-of-a-kind runtime that utilizes parallelism and fault tolerance.

Simply put, Elixir has an unparalleled capability to manage high levels of concurrency and handle faults while allowing clean code writing.
