Every time I started a new Phoenix application, it took me quite a while to remember how to get everything set up in Phoenix in order to display a React component. Beyond that, most of the tutorials I found that dealt with React and Brunch (vs Webpack) only rendered a single component. I’m more interested in React sprinkles in my app and the global rendering on every page load wasn’t working for me. I saw a hole in the current offerings of packages dealing with Phoenix and React and I decided to fill it.

As I get more comfortable with Elixir, I can’t help but compare it to other things I know. Elixir’s standard library outperforms and outclasses Javascript’s de facto standard library, Lodash.

PlugEtsCache is a simple caching system based on Plug and ETS. It lets you to cache responses for a given amount of time, heavily boosting response times.

For too long we’ve been using exclusively relational databases to put our data. Don’t let it model your data, but the other way around. https://blog.digitalnatives.hu/take-ownership-of-your-data-intro/

I was missing something like Elixir.String which operated on bytes instead of codepoints, so I wrote a tiny lib with a few handy functions, mostly wrappers for erlang’s :binary. Would love to get some feedback.

12-Factor … Kubernetes … Docker Swarm … Running Elixir in production and keeping these in mind can be a challenge; how do we configured our compiled application at run-time?

Weave can help.

LittleAlchemist.io is launching the first (and only) Elixir Youtube channel, and what better way to start than a Hello World tutorial?

In our latest episode we build a simple shopping list with GenServer https://elixircasts.io/intro-to-genserver

I’ve published a post about creating multi-language Flowex components.

A simple “Hello, world” example is considered. The Export library is used for running Ruby and Python code and Porcelain library for spawning shell programs.

Enjoy!

Pattern Matching is one of the fundamental concepts that we need to master while learning Elixir.

Trans is an Elixir library for managing translations embedded into data structures.

Trans 2.0 was released last week with lots of improvements over the previous versions. This article explains the main changes, improvements and future plans for Trans:

• Decompile any .beam file in your project (doesn’t matter what the original language was to Elixir modules and their containing functions and macros) and from the Elixir SDK
  • Go To Declaration works for both the decompiled module Aliases and the macros and functions, so you can now jump to at least a stub of all standard library functions and macros
  • Completion works for both decompiled module Aliases and the macros and functions, so standard library completion is present, but so is completion of Erlang dependencies once you’re compiled, such as :idna.
• A bunch of bug fixes, including fixing the wonky highlights in random locations in files: it turned out that the annotator was always highlighting the call definition offset even if the call definition was in another file.

I released a new version of Credo, the static code analysis tool emphasizing code consistency and teaching.

This release fixes several minor bugs and introduces a new check for lazy logging ( CHANGELOG ).

This article explains about Elixir Module Deployment across multiple nodes from the scratch. Here we go with deep understanding of things like Node Creation, Establishing Node Connection and Deploying Modules across multiple Nodes.

Check out how to use Apollo in a “Create React App”-based React application alongside an Absinthe-powered Elixir/Phoenix backend in this new article.

Disclaimer : this is just an experiment. I don’t know how f… up it is to store Erlang’s terms in a SQL DB.

You can store any Elixir data (aka Erlang’s term) in Postgres. Here’s how you do it, step-by-step.
