=== Introduction === Supervision is at the core of Elixir's approach to concurrency and fault tolerance. It is inspired by the "let it crash" philosophy of the Erlang programming language, which embraces the idea that failures are an inherent part of software development. Rather than trying to prevent failures, Elixir embraces them as opportunities for recovery and self-healing. Supervision is based on the idea that processes should be organized into structured supervision trees. Each process has a direct supervisor, responsible for monitoring its execution and taking appropriate actions in case of failure. Supervisors can be defined hierarchically, allowing for powerful fault tolerance strategies.
