Guide to Tracing in Erlang

I’ve spent a lot of time debugging Elixir and Erlang applications over the last 5 years and decided to share what I’ve learned here. I started writing this blog post in April of 2017 and wasn’t inspired to finish it until watching Jeffery Utter’s Debugging Live Systems on the BEAM talk about a month ago. If you’d prefer a more concise presentation of Erlang tracing I suggest you watch that talk instead of reading this.
