A first post on Elixir, exploring pattern-matching.

Put simply, TableRex can generate pretty ASCII-like tables for your CLI program or Mix task that look like this:

+----------------+---------------+------+
|     Artist     |     Track     | Year |
+================+===============+======+
|    Konflict    |    Cyanide    | 1999 |
| Marcus Intalex |  Temperance   | 2004 |
| Kryptic Minds  | The Forgotten | 2007 |
+----------------+---------------+------+

The styling is quite customisable; the docs still need more work but you can see the different styles of table you can create by looking at the text renderer tests.

Next time you want to give a fellow developer an introduction to Elixir send him this link so he can pick the most complelling article for himself.

Meld creates shell scripts that run mix tasks. If those shell scripts are on the PATH, it emulates a command-line app.

I just published “Setting up Elm with Phoenix” https://medium.com/@diamondgfx/setting-up-elm-with-phoenix-be3a9f55bac2

This post covers how to get a base project set up for Elixir, Elm, and Phoenix and helps with getting brunch configured to give auto-reload for our Elm project!

Episode 5 of ExCasts is now available: EXRM Release for a Simple Elixir Project

My blog post to discuss some of the issues I’ve encountered while trying to strengthen Exrm on Windows.

I put together a tutorial for deploying an Elixir app to your Raspberry Pi 2 with the Nerves-Project.

Building a web framework from scratch in Elixir

Hi everybody,

you might have seen some test tweets I’ve made the last half hour.

You can now add your Twitter handle to ElixirStatus and that will be added to your tweet. Be sure to add it when you make your next post!

As always: Open an Issue if you think anything is broken or worthy of improvement!

My post yesterday received some harsh critique, this is an attempt to clarify my position by personally appealing to Piotr Solnica to give Elixir a try…

A quick comparison of language code bases and some resulting (biased) conclusions.

I setup Ecto within my Domain Scrapper application. See what I learned.

Yesterday was part 3 of a series on Elixir and Robotics at the Portland (Maine) Erlang & Elixir meetup.

I demoed a mobile Lego Mindstorms robot running an Elixir implementation of a home-brewed “model of the mind”. The robot in turn foraged, roamed and panicked as it reacted to changes in its situation.

See my latest post.

This post puts emphasis on being useful outside the scalesmall experiment and shows examples about embedding ranch into my supervision tree, and a bit of UDP multicast:

Hope you find this useful.
