I’ve been happy with the Elixir/Erlang world. Especially as a scripting/dynamic language it’s been remarkably stable from a "don’t waste my time" perspective. Core system features from years back work, and generally work with updated libraries.
Well despite a few major changes to Phoenix, but that was mostly changes to the naming patterns. It also switched to web pack which I consider a pain point of following JS development. With LiveView I only have a dozen JS deps and ~50 lines of JS so now I can get off the JS ratrace too! Well github complains about outdated npm deps. I should make a GH action for that or something.
