The Community

Erlang often receives praise for its friendly and knowledgeable user community. The erlang.org website is a natural first stop for finding new and old versions of Erlang, the online documentation, and the erlang-questions mailing list.

We provide additional community services through the TrapExit web, where you can find a multitude of discussion forums, user contributions and tutorials. We also arrange Erlang User Group Meetings in several cities on a regular basis, with interesting talks and inspiring conversations. The User Group Meetings usually end with an ErLounge - a friendly get-together over beer at some nearby pub.

We release some of our generic components as Open Source. We use these components ourselves in commercial products.

We also encourage our staff to write papers and present at conferences, and regularly sponsor Master's and PhD theses or take on interns - many of whom decide to stay with us.
