OTP Design Principles
OTP Design Principles[edit]
The OTP Design Principles are a set of guidelines that aim to promote robust, scalable, and fault-tolerant software design in the context of the Elixir programming language. OTP (Open Telecom Platform) is a core component of Elixir and provides a framework for building concurrent, distributed, and fault-tolerant applications. These principles are based on years of experience and best practices accumulated by the Erlang community.
