Why Groxio
When learning Elixir, it's natural to focus on what functions do.
We teach why systems work.
We start with boundaries, failure, supervision, and tradeoffs. Then show how Elixir makes those ideas concrete.
The same discipline applies to AI: structured workflows, clear boundaries, real outcomes.
"I don't just want you to write Elixir. I want you to understand why it works the way it does. That understanding changes how you approach every problem."
