@implis actually one of my favorite attributes. I do however use it in a different way, for example, in the code you showed I would have used@impl GenServerto make it clear which behaviour is being implemented.The issue with this approach however, is that to avoid doing
@impl MyApp.SomeModule.MyBehavioureverywhere, I usually have to put analiascall before, which messes up the Elixir style guidelines which say that analiasshould be after abehaviourcall.But oh well, good to know you’re still rocking!
