Description
## Learning objectives
- `defmacro`
- the `Macro` module
- what's an AST
- when *not* to use macros
## Out of scope
I am not sure if explaining `require`/`use` in the same exercise would be a good idea. It's a lot of difficult concepts at once. But maybe it makes sense?
## Concepts
- `macros`
## Prerequisites
Come up with something that will put this concept far down the concept tree. Maybe this should depend on a non-existent yet concept of dynamically defining functions without macros? (see https://github.com/exercism/elixir/pull/583#discussion_r567406673)
## Practice exercises
Those practice exercises should have `macros` in their prerequisites and as `practices`:
- `dot-dsl`
