How to structure a Elixir application?

Do you have any tips or links on how to structure a Elixir application? I’m keen towards a more feature based separation instead of type based (controllers, models, …). But I never did any big project in Elixir so everything is still a question for me.

Yes, indeed very loosely. I wouldn’t even say this is recent. This makes me realize I should have framed my comment more like: “If you wanna check out Bounded Contexts then maybe you’ll gain some insight into Chris’ thinking which you can then take or leave.” It’s what I get for checking Elixir Forum and trying to respond in the 5 mins before my rice was done cooking.

Definitely. Ultimately all the stuff like “models”, “controllers”, “views” and what-have-you are just artifacts of our own imagination; artificial constructs that help us think about a problem better. But, hm, they don’t fit the brains of all of us that well though.

I’ve voiced ideas – one that I never acted on for now – that framework artifacts should live in entirely different directories even. Maybe one day I’ll try. Though with having a library like boundaries that becomes a semi-moot point.
