ElixirData

As an Elixir novice, I think one of the hardest things about getting started in Elixir is figuring out what kind of data structures to use. <a href="https://medium.com/flatiron-labs" target="_blank">My team</a> has recently started going all in on Elixir, so I’ve been trying to brush up in earnest. Often, however, I’ll be reading over some of my team’s code and have a hard time deciphering what I’m even looking at. The syntax looks very similar to Ruby (which I know pretty well), but the patterns, conventions, and data structures are just slightly different. In my mind, that makes sense since it’s a functional rather than object-oriented language: where you would use objects in Ruby, you’re probably spawning processes instead in Elixir.
