Where can I find Phoenix 1.7 related end-to-end sample applications?

Phoenix Forum Questions / Help

Most of the Phoenix examples or sample applications on the web are outdated, specifically Phoenix.Component oriented functional views based end-to-end examples aren’t there.

Do you know where I can find traditional vs Liveview Phoenix 1.7.rc sample applications?

I am looking for the following Phoenix 1.7.rc based samples (blog posts or github):

  1. Todo
  2. Rumbl (Phoenix 1.4 book)
  3. ECommerce with shopping cart

I know over time these sample apps based posts will pop up on medium etc. But just wanted to find out if some brave soul out there re-wrote and published these sample apps based on the latest Phoenix 1.7.

A trick I do is to search the GitHub for public projects related with my interests. In your case, you can search GitHub by selecting in “All Github” for the following query:

phoenix 1.7.0-rc.0 language:Elixir filename:mix.exs

and preferably order by “recently indexed”. Good luck!

I posted Part 1 of my Phoenix 1.7 tutorial here: A Brief Introduction to Phoenix and LiveView (Part 1) – Daniel Jaouen Development

Part 2 should be coming within a week (hopefully!).

Thank you for the idea!

I will update this thread, if I find a few beginner-level Phoenix 1.7.rc projects with basic steps or documentation on github.

Thank you Daniel! I found your brief introductions (Parts 1 & 2) helpful and so bought you a coffee.

It would be great if you could publish a few more beginner-level tutorials on Phoenix 1.7 & LiveView.

Thanks!

Just an idea, please, try to offer a light mode as well, your web seems to be relatively simple, so a few classes for a light mode shouldn’t be a problem. :wink:

To be honest, I am just using a default Wordpress theme, and I am not too familiar with how to offer an option like that using Wordpress. However, I will try to look into it for the future. Thanks for the suggestion!

I think the biggest problem with demos is that they are too simple and doesnt cover most of the building blocks needed for larger apps. For ex live view and streams. Cool. But how do i efficiently display a dropdown of another schema in a live view form, for ex if you add a product show a dropdown of product category. How do you make a dropdown with 1.7s new core components. How do you do multitenancy with foreign key relations. Which obviously is the simplest way to isolate orgs in a solution. How do you use GenServers in a clustered environment. How do you make sure genserver only run on one node. There are so many small things that pile up that is not covered by the documentation. That is just annoying to get around. Even for a seasoned developer on its 15th year.
