San Diego Elixir / Erlang - Thurs. July 21, 7:00pm

Ecto Outside of Phoenix with Geo

Many projects you will work on in most programming languages are
backed by a database connection and Elixir is no different. The go-to
module for accessing databases in Elixir is Ecto. In this live-coding
session, we will create a sample application and go over the basics of
how to use Ecto in your Elixir applications.

:red_car: Parking
There is paid parking (marked in GREEN on the map below) underneath the shopping center on the corner of Pacific Beach Drive and Mission Blvd. There is also lots of street parking (some of it is marked in RED on the map below but it’s all over) on the side streets across from the shopping center on the east side of Mission Blvd.
