Been working with Erlang for a couple of years and just started learning Elixir.
Plan is to make a small web app to find the next commute home from work.

Took a break from coding, Yesterday gave a presentation on elixir in my organisation. Wont lie, less attendees. Most never heard of elixir. One person was working on Blockchain using Nodejs, he got pretty excited. I hope he picks either erlang or elixir.
And side by side building a product in my free time. Made my WebApp a PWA (network only). I am planning on adding AWS SNS reading about…

I’m building a social network, it was previously a php + nodejs for websockets project but I successfully migrated everything to elixir last year.
It is a Phoenix json API with a Vue.js frontend, now I’m moving the frontend to Phoenix templates, I don’t like having a separate node app to render the js frontend and pure js frontends have horrible performance on low end devices.
I’ve had a great experience with phoenix views and templates so far 
Now I’m looking for a solution to the interactive parts, like the post creator, or the many interactions and modal dialogs I have to redo, I’m in between of turbolinks + stimulus and unpoly.
I want to open source it, but I still don’t know when or how I’ll do it

I made a fast RSS parser for elixir implemented as a Rust NIF: GitHub - avencera/fast_rss: Fast Elixir RSS feed parser, a NIF wrapper around the Rust RSS crate · GitHub
It’s really dumb and naive, not at all optimized by still >20x faster than the library I was using
