Elixir/OTP projects and ideas

No amount of exercise or book problems replaces writing an actual library or application, but it can be hard for a newbie to know what to write. This is a thread that helps with that.

I’m looking for two things:

  • General Elixir project ideas—things Elixir is good and well-suited for. Doesn’t have to be something new or worth putting in a portfolio.
  • What libraries do you think are missing in the ecosystem? Writing something many others may use feels great.

Although it is far from trivial, probably, I would like it if there would be a Lets Encrypt client implementation in Elixir/OTP, so we could have automatic, safe and free SSL certificates on our web applications.

I would love to see more Elixir efforts around an open source ecommerce platform. The ecommerce options out there are downright depressing and this is an area where Elixir/Phoenix can really shine. See peach for a WIP (the only one I know of!).

We were looking for funding for e-commerce platform at one point. To be competitive the feature list alone is about 60 pages.
