Elixir's optional syntax

Notes

I always knew that Elixir had some optional syntax, but I didn’t realize how prevalent it was!

José Valim shared a new guide on Elixir’s optional syntax. And I thought it was really cool!

From the guide:

Those conveniences, which we call here “optional syntax”, allow the language syntax core to be small, without sacrificing the readability and expressiveness of your code
