I'm currently fighting with poor README instructions on how to get a project up and running locally. It's been a couple of hours already and I just want to code, not fight with these tools.
Not sure how you define great, but as long as you provide a platform for people to find new opportunities and is quite successful for both parties, I'd say it's great and quite an achievement.
After 2 months using Elixir in a big project for a big company, I must say that I'm really enjoying what's going on. Some libraries are still young, but other than that, the main ones work as expected.
It's really awesome to see that Elixir is actually being used in the "real world". Do you mind sharing how you guys started using it? Did you start from scratch or were you an erlang shop prior to using Elixir?
We started right away from scratch on Elixir. No Erlang before, just Ruby and some other "best tools for the job". It's pretty cool to be able to select whatever technology fits what you want to achieve.
