Phoenix Keynote Commentary
I figured I’d run through Chris McCord’s Phoenix Keynote from ElixirConf 2022 and note my thoughts.

react_phoenix v1.3.1 released
I’ve just published version 1.3.1 of the react_phoenix package. While @elixirphoenix LiveView can make React unnecessary in many situations, some developers still rely on React in their front-end. For you, have some security updates! #MyElixirStatus

ThinkingElixir 121: Self Taught Coder to First Elixir Job
Episode 121 of Thinking Elixir. She started at the very beginning of her self-directed, non-traditional route to coding. She first had to learn to code. She worked, studied, and leaned on mentors and others until she reached the point of being hired for a full time job. What language did she tackle as that very first one? Elixir! We talked with Kimberly Johnson about how she did it. She shared her story at ElixirConf which we found inspiring. We wanted to go deeper on how she kept going when things got hard and how she built up a network of mentors and resources to help along the way. A great story and potential roadmap for others who want to follow a non-traditional path to a software development career!

Probuild-ex : Create a league of legends pro players build trackers with elixir Part 4
Third part of a series to create a probuild tracker for the game league of legends. Together we will build probuild-ex using elixir, phoenix, liveview and friends.
ExUnion - Tagged Unions for Elixir. Just that.
ExUnion is meant to be a lightweight, elixir-y implementation of tagged unions (also called variant, discriminated union, sum type, etc.).
While conventionally Elixir tends to promote using tuples to model tagged unions - the {:ok, …} | {:error, …} pattern being a good example of that - this approach arguably lacks expressiveness, especially when modeling non-trivial unions. An alternative is to employ structs to model the individual cases of a tagged union, which works nicely but has the disadvantage of requiring significant boilerplate code.
ExUnion attempts to bridge this gap by generating the necessary boilerplate (and a bit more) through a concise albeit opinionated DSL.

ThinkingElixir 120: Localize and Personalize Your Elixir Apps
Episode 120 of Thinking Elixir. Localizing and personalizing an application is separate from the language used in the interface. Kip Cole explains how the mismatch of computers with the culture of our audience creates friction we may not even be aware of. In fact, our benign app may be unintentionally offensive to millions of people! Kip created the libraries ex_cldr, money and tempo to help Elixir developers localize applications in a culture aware way. What does that mean? It means using minimal information we can infer how names should appear, how numbers are represented, the assumed numeric rounding rules, first day of the week, the calendar being used, and more!
