Hello, once again! Today, I am going to introduce you to the basics of the web framework, Phoenix. Phoenix is a web framework that reached 1.0 in 2015 written in the Elixir programming language. It…

Sometimes you are faced with the task to build a list out of elements where some of the elements are conditional. Dart even has a special syntax for this.

A reminder that code is a step in a process, not an end in itself.

State machines are a well defined concept that developers all around have been using, some without even knowing it.

Have you ever needed to build solutions related to execution flows like wizards, admission processes,...

In the first part of a two-part series, we'll touch on some tools you can use for debugging in Elixir.

I run a couple of internal and public applications written in Phoenix on our infrastructure. While services like fly.io exist and are amazing, sometimes it’s both cheaper (and more secure) to run small internal applications on your own hardware. It’s certainly more fun. Thru the years I’ve developed my own process of deploying the application and this post will document the current procedure.

The last post took a peek at how functions can be defined and passed around in Elixir. This post centres around atoms and some of their not…

I should first clarify that I would never come out against the idea of writing tests for your code.

You sometimes feel the need to make all of your integers positive, without losing any information. That is, you want to map all of your integers from ‘signed’ integers (e.g., -1, 1, 3, -3) to ‘unsigned integers’ (e.g., 3,2,6,7). This could be useful if you have a fast function to compress integers that fails to … Continue reading Making all your integers positive with zigzag encoding

This article will explain the best ten frameworks for the Elixir programming language. The list includes Phoenix, Nerves, Sugar, etc.

Today on the show we are joined by Michal Muskala, who is currently a freelance software engineer and he is here to talk to us about his work on the Ecto and jason libraries. With Ecto we continue our journey into Elixir and Michal explain how he became involved in the project and the work he did on it. He explains a little of its inner workings, issues and what excited him about it initially. We then turn to jason, a widely popular library that Michal created for parsing JSON. Michal unpacks its particulars, differentiating for us between the driver and adapter and the lessons he learned working on them. The last bit of our conversation is spent talking about open source and Michal's commitment to its philosophy. We discuss making time to work on projects, buy in from employers and and why getting involved can be scary yet is so important! For all this and more, join us for this great episode!
