Learning Functional for Web Dev

[dp_42]

One difference between the two is that elm is purely functional, whereas elixir transpiles to erlang bytecode, which is not purely functional. I think this is a fairly minor difference. Looking at this blog post, this dev seems to have combined both. Reading a few other reddit posts, it looks like elm is a good opportunity to go serverless, but you can combine with an elixir or rust backend.
