The ElixirConf 2016 talk that the Big Nerd Ranch article is based on is awesome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZxBL-lV9uA

I went hunting for the Big Nerd Ranch articles and they are down now. Luckily, both still up on Nathan Long’s blog though. Lots of good stuff in there.

As a side-note I’d highly recommend both his IO.ANSI blog posts and the Big Nerd Ranch article on IO lists. @dnsbty will you be doing an updated post on switching your IO.ANSI code to use IO lists? I think that would be neat, also it would be good to cover that to get the best performance improvements you need to re-use bindings instead of creating new ones by generating a new string (even though the strings may be identical in content).
