09/09/2022, 7:35 PMHi everyone! I am José Valim, I work on the Elixir programming language, and recently I started working on a code notebook for Elixir called Livebook. We have been exploring many visual ideas lately, which brought me to this community. 🙂 In case you want to check out the work we have done so far, here is a recent presentation of mine (timestamped):
The video shows how we automatically generate diagrams from process communication, render supervision trees, visually debug pipelines, and plot charts and more!

I guess many know it but just in case, @José Valim is the creator of Elixir

Great to have you here! Just watched the video. Love the visual representations. I always thought that the actor model would lend itself so well to visualizations. Also really love the pipeline visualizer. Always something I've wanted in clojure.
The memory inspection is such a good example of why we need dynamic introspectable runtimes. Love it 🙂
