One of the things I love about Erlang/OTP being so cool is that they’re decades old - isn’t it awesome when something (and sometimes, someone) are so ahead of their time? :sunglasses:

Rust is definitely up there!

I am going to add WASM, TypeScript and Svelte to the list, as well as Elixir for being the gateway to Erlang/OTP for so many of us :nerd_face:
