• Built-in Dababase migrations
• Use of Elixir/Erlang's built-in pub sub for UI event messages to server side functions
• Eliminates whole layer of SPA coding
• Elixir is much cleaner than JavaScript or TypeScript
• Easy to write might meaningful tests for UI events without mocking
• Lighweight Map syntax is ideal for simple API process, no need for layer of classes/structs for simple use cases
• Cachex for sharing shopping cart was super simple
• Easy to handle hiding secrets
• Ease of on engineers, only one language to learn - functional by design (not bolted on)
• Resiliency: function crashing doesn't destroy server or even parent processes or session
• Super easy to develop locally versus cloud-native stacks, it just runs
• several million concurrent users per server, cheap to run on the cloud

• requires deploying servers, scales vertically first, then horizontally
• requires sockets, live connection to servers
• requires discipline - modular monolith
