A little bit of self promotion, but the readers should find this interesting if they would like to try Erlang.
The back-end of our web app is entirely in Erlang. As the language is not really known for the web arena and the community was still small in terms of knowledge sharing … , we started our own channel about How to get started with Erlang, specifically for web applications.
We created a dedicated website:
