Can anyone suggest any good repositories for Hologram projects?

Even after years Phoenix does not have “awesome” list. The one I found have only 35 items:
I guess there is not much projects in Hologram especially since comparing to Phoenix it’s relatively new, did not had a stable (usually 1.0.0 in semantic versioning) release and does not have any generators yet.
There is one repository, but it’s not open source yet:
That’s said the most important part was shared on the forum:
I may be wrong, but we would need to wait a long time before we would be able to have a good “awesome” list of Hologram repositories. For now we are mostly based on the docs and other things @bartblast shares with us. Please look that the Roadmap have lots of points and all of them would need to be documented. I’m sure that expect me many people are looking for even a few features …
Look that without for example JS Interop and related planned features we are a bit limited especially if someone want to integrate Hologram with frontend libraries. Without a stable API for this we can forgot about a Leaflet-based apps for example as nobody would really do that in plan Hologram if the same could be achieved in other web frameworks. For sure there may and most probably are some workarounds, but it’s not the point. To work on a real world project people rather expects a clean and feature-complete solution.
I asked folks in the Ash community to try out hologram + ash. Was just an initial stab but they linked this repo: GitHub - sanderhahn/todos-hologram-ash: Todos with Ash and Hologram
Might be worth looking at.

Hey Richard! The Hologram ecosystem is still pretty small since I’ve been focused on stabilizing the core framework. Now that v0.5.0 is released, adoption is just starting to ramp up, so I expect we’ll see more community projects popping up soon.
For now, the pickings are slim, but that also means there’s a great opportunity for early adopters to build some of the foundational example projects the community will reference for years to come!
You raise valid points about the current limitations, but I have good news - JS interop is actually right around the corner! Once that lands, integrations with libraries like Leaflet will be very much possible.
That said, I don’t see any fundamental reason why something like Leaflet couldn’t be implemented directly in Hologram either. The framework is quite capable for complex interactive applications - it’s more about having the ecosystem mature and people building these solutions.
You’re right that people expect feature-complete solutions for real-world projects, which is exactly why I’m prioritizing these core capabilities before pushing for wider adoption.

That’s awesome! I’m working on addressing some of the inconveniences highlighted in the todos-hologram-ash repo now.
Is there any publicly available discussion in the Ash community about this repo or Hologram generally that I could check out for feedback?
Thanks for encouraging folks to try it out!

Thanks, I’m looking forward to learning, and work well with examples, so if we can get some basic examples up asap, I’d be happy to test them and provide feedback

Nothing beyond a few messages like “Here is a thing I set up” in the Ash discord. You could search our discord for the word “hologram” and likely come up with some chatter, but not much beyond speculation I’d bet
