Monthly Meeting: Thinking In Ecto

It's time for our monthly Elixir meeting!

What is Elixir?

Elixir is a dynamic, functional language designed for building scalable and maintainable applications. Elixir leverages the Erlang VM, known for running low-latency, distributed and fault-tolerant systems.

• Build web applications using Phoenix.
• Craft GraphQL APIs using Absinthe.
• Deploy embedded software using Nerves.

We'll also have time for your questions and group coding time (so bring your projects!).
