Integrating Elm and Phoenix Channels via elm-phoenix-socket

I made a thing: https://www.dailydrip.com/topics/elm/drips/elm-phoenix-socket (link on reddit)

I hope you find it useful! It’s a walkthrough of integrating Elm with Phoenix Channels. The backend is using Presence, but elm-phoenix-socket doesn’t yet know about Presence. I’m hoping to teach it a little this week, but we’ll see. There’s also a link to a walkthrough of building the Presence Chat system - it’s not very dissimilar from Chris’ video of Presence since that’s how I learned what needed doing, but it ends up with a full chat system (just a lobby) alongside presence.

for what it’s worth I highly recommend elm-phoenix instead now.
