Key differences between Elixir and Ruby

CharacteristicElixirRuby
SyntaxElixir has a syntax similar to Ruby, but with some differences. It uses the pipe operator for function composition and has a pattern matching syntax.Ruby has a more traditional syntax with a focus on readability and simplicity.
ParadigmElixir is a functional programming language that runs on the Erlang virtual machine (BEAM). It also supports concurrent and distributed programming.Ruby is a dynamic, object-oriented programming language with a focus on simplicity and productivity.
TypingElixir is a dynamically typed language, meaning that variable types are checked at runtime.Ruby is also a dynamically typed language.
PerformanceElixir is known for its performance and scalability, especially in concurrent and distributed scenarios.Ruby is generally slower than Elixir, especially in highly concurrent scenarios.
Libraries and frameworksElixir has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including Phoenix, which is a popular web framework.Ruby has a mature ecosystem with a wide range of libraries and frameworks, including Ruby on Rails.
Community and supportElixir has a growing and active community with good support from the community and the core development team.Ruby has a large and active community with extensive support and resources available.
Learning curveElixir has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Ruby or functional programming concepts.Ruby has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers with prior programming experience.
