The fact that you didnt even knew about a widely popular library like jiffy until now, and you keep on ranting, "oh, my jsons..". It is just your ignorance, pal. You are ranting on about things you only have vague idea about.

For modern web development, go check out Cowboy. You are welcome.

Did it exist ten years ago?

Of course not.

But new libraries don't solve the underlying language infrastructure.

Ah, so you were not able to work with json in Erlang a decade ago, and still hold grudge about it! Jeez.

If your understanding of "underlying language infrastructure" is also based on your experience 10 years ago, then that is the same with all languages, pal. With every version, programming languages evolve, they become better. Erlang is no different.
