elixir (language)
the elixir programming language, on the erlang vm · 27,000 stars.
what i did
Application.get_env is one of the most used functions in the language and its documentation did not say what it was for. i wrote the use case in; josé valim, who created elixir, reviewed it, refined it with commits of his own and merged it. the same year i corrected ecto’s changeset documentation, merged, and reported to phoenix that its connection params conflated array and string values. elixir was the language of the weather api at rhea group, streaming map visualisations at twenty-five milliseconds.
