José Valim joins us to kick off part 1 of a 5 part series as we count down to the 10 year anniversary of the Elixir project we know and love. In Part 1, we talk through the Elixir releases of 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3. We cover the significant changes in each release, what instigated the change, the thinking behind it, and more. We cover some long-present features that people may not be aware of and recall what these changes meant to us.
