Hacker News Comments on
Elixir Is Neat But What Can You Actually Do With It? - Rob Conery

NDC Conferences · Vimeo · 2 HN comments
HN Theater has aggregated all Hacker News stories and comments that mention NDC Conferences's video "Elixir Is Neat But What Can You Actually Do With It? - Rob Conery".
Vimeo Summary
Working with Elixir is intoxicating. The syntax is clean, pattern matching is thrilling, and the power of the Erlang VM underneath is mind-blowing. But what can you actually build with it? What patterns do you use… what tools? Are Phoenix and Ecto my only choices for web and data frameworks?
In this talk Rob Conery will share his experience migrating a Ruby on Rails application to Elixir, and the choices he faced along the way. We’ll dive into Agents, Supervision Trees, JSONB and potential life on Mars as we figure out the best way to structure an application in Elixir that works great both now and into the future.

Have you tried Elixir?

Please have a look at the following presentation. I was also interested in the same, watched this presentation[0] & many other, made some prototypes by myself & I'm still amazed by OTP/Elixir & Phoenix later on.

I'll take a look when I get a chance - from a glance at the Phoenix docs looks it like a railsy MVC framework though?

The pattern I'm talking about is dicussed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2945513

You should check out https://vimeo.com/171317253. The speakers addresses the database issue in a very interesting way.
