Do you have any Elixir goals for the year? Perhaps you want to start (or finish!) some project/s? Maybe you want to read some books? Please share! :003:

What are your Elixir related plans or targets for 2019?

I started on a new project to build a compiler for the Snowball language. Its a specialised language but I’ve started on some NLP algoriths in a new package called Text which does simple language detection today. But the next set of algorithms need stemming hence a snowball compiler. I also like that it was born of the SNOBOL programming language. I remember doing the Towers of Hanoi problem in Snobol at university, The project will compile Snowball to Elixir AST and generate modules from that.

Interesting idea. I will start to gather and organize notes!

This sounds like a great article or conference presentation!

once I’m more comfortable with the language

I went to my first elixir meetup in LA, last week.

It was about Floki webscrapping.

Many attendee seems to be new. I’m pretty new too.

I want to finish Phoenix in Action. Get Elixir - Phoenix to work with a Graphql API, which means I have to learn Graphql as well. I want to find a web UI that I can work with. One that I can use Elixir-Phoenix-Ecto-Graphql as a backend with. I really like the ones made by Devexpress & Syncfusion but these are for .Net - though maybe they would work with my backend in JSON? I would like to hook up with a user group here in L.A. once I’m more comfortable with the language. It would be nice to get involved with an open source project to the extent that I can.

  • Finish my work on the mongodb driver
  • Finish porting some projects from Scala to Elixir
  • Try to get some colleagues excited about elixir and erlang
  • Maybe I’ll explain how to use the MongoDB successfully in Elixir programs
  • And of course I’m working on the killing app, which gives me honor and glory and lots of money (since 1984)
  • And praise me as full stack devops sensior everything and everywhere (know every framework, every database, every language, am 23 years and have worked for international global player for seven years. What I say is always right)

Hopefully I’m able to land an Elixir job. It hasn’t been so easy leaving Clojure after all the investment. I’m basically a noob again.
