I started with Elixir last year, after ten years of Erlang - definitely an upgrade!

My favorite improvement is the existence of Ecto - what an amazing piece of software.

Thanks for all your work and vision!

I've also realized in this past year that the first thing I miss when going back to Node or another stack is Ecto.

That doesn't diminish anything about the Elixir language, either. In many languages, Ecto's DSL wouldn't be performant, practical or even possible.
