How to choose the best web programming language and framework for an app in 2022? Is it even possible? I believe it is, and in this blog post, I’ll try to convince you why Elixir & Phoenix is the perfect combination you’re looking for.

In episode 69 of Thinking Elixir, we talk with Dominic Letz about running Elixir on an Android phone in an APK which hosts a LiveView application accessed through a WebView! All while also pursuing a Web 3.0 architecture of being decentralized! Wow! There’s a lot going on here! Oh, and the tech is OpenSource!

Over the past few days I’ve been upgrading my projects to Phoenix 1.6 and like any project that comes out of a template-based generator, migrating a Phoenix project to a new version can be a little scary and error prone, particularly for people new to Elixir and Phoenix. Today I’ll share some personal notes and tips to hopefully make the process a little smoother.

We posted a guide to deploy Elixir and Phoenix to Heroku using the Heroku container stack and Docker. We use Elixir releases, automated database migrations, and set up continuous deployment.

We published a guide to deploy Elixir and Phoenix to Render with Elixir releases, automated database migrations, and Continuous Deployment. Render provides a streamlined process to deploy many languages and frameworks.

As Elixir developers at Coletiv, we periodically come face to face with some unexpected challenges and obstacles in our projects and we believe in sharing our solutions with the community.

So, in this post, Pedro shares some important and interesting aspects of Elixir and its frameworks. We hope you enjoy it and find it useful! https://coletiv.com/blog/what-you-should-know-about-elixir-part1/

Did we ever say we were going to use Phoenix LiveView to build a Messenger app with no JavaScript? We lied!!! This time, we’re going to tell you why, how & when you can and should kick in with your JS magic when using Phoenix LiveView. https://curiosum.com/blog/elixir-phoenix-liveview-messenger-part-4

The ability to upload files is a key requirement for many todays web and mobile applications. In this tutorial, we will look at how we can accomplish file uploads to local storage and S3 server in Phoenix with the help of Waffle library. https://curiosum.com/blog/how-upload-file-elixir-waffle

In episode 68 of Thinking Elixir, we talk with Niklas Begley about his Doctave service and the problems it’s solving. From there we cover why they use Rust for a key piece of the service and how Elixir fits in. We cover tools like Rustler for integrating Elixir and Rust smoothly. We talk about business drivers, Nik’s experience building a SaaS product using Elixir and more!

Elixir releases are self-contained directories, but unfortunately they are not platform-independent. Here is how to cross compile releases with ASDF and Docker.

We go through the steps to deploy Elixir and Phoenix to Fly with Continuous Deployment using GitHub Actions. Fly provides easy multi-region clustering which may reduce latency for Phoenix LiveView apps because you can deploy the application closer to users.

I love hot reloading in it’s various forms, so I wrote about how and why we use hot reloading at Felt. Hopefully it inspires and helps you to use hot reloading as well: https://felt.com/blog/phoenix-and-webpack-hot-reloading-react

There are many different cloud hosting providers to choose from, and it can be hard to determine which one is best to take advantage of Elixir’s incredible features. We did some research and determined the four best cloud hosting platforms you should use for your Elixir applications.
