In this episode the panel talks to Danny Hawkins - CTO at Quiqup - and his team's journey at Quiqup with Elixir. Danny explains how some of the first things Quiqup built were using Elixir and how they then left Elixir behind in favor of TypeScript, only to come back to Elixir.
The panel considers how these choices rarely are purely driven by technological qualities but instead have to factor in cultural- and knowledge-aspects of a team, and how a top-down dictated technology decision - even if there are good reasons for it - can be harmful to a team's morale.
