I wrote a thing about accessing the Apple CloudKit public database using elixir, because it took me a while to figure it out

I spent the last year learning programming, starting from only basic knowledge of HTML. I wrote a couple of bog posts about my experience. A lot of the time was spent with Elixir, so it may be interesting/useful for people learning Elixir to check out.

Using Elixir’s GenStage and Flow to build product recommendations. A real-world example of building a computational parallel pipeline using Flow. Step-by-step guide to building, visualising and optimising a pipeline built with the new Flow library.
Crowdsourcing product mentions, applying sentiment analysis, and scoring to rank products. Used to build the Start learning Elixir recommendation website. I’ve used this forum to source product mentions and recommendations for learning Elixir.

I’m the author of that article. Ping me if you have any questions about CQRS/ES and Elixir.

btw, I created a to collect top resources about Elixir. After all, there’re too many resources. Check out it: GitHub - tony612/the-zen-of-elixir: Collection of top articles reflecting the Zen of Elixir · GitHub

@mkunikow posted a link to this article earlier, it has some flattering comments about Elixir

Elixir appeals largely to those with Ruby or Erlang backgrounds. Its creator, José Valim, was a Rails Core developer, so it’s no surprise his creation draws much of its inspiration from Ruby. Because of its esoteric syntax, Erlang has been one of the least approachable programming languages. Yet it sits atop an incredible piece of technology. It’s the same technology which handles most of the phone calls in the world with 99.9999999% uptime. That is 32 milliseconds of downtime a year. The creators of WhatsApp scaled to hundreds of millions of users with only a few developers in part thanks to its robustness. Elixir brings this technology to the broader public.
Thanks to the Phoenix framework, Elixir will attract a lot of Rails developers. It feels like the next generation of Rails in a functional flavored Ruby. It does things with ease that Ruby has been hacked into doing: long-running processes, multi-core processing, and WebSockets, among others. I think we’ll see Elixir use grow for both monolithic-style minimum viable products and for apps that require high user concurrency like chat, messaging, and audio/video calls. The platform can also see interesting uses in Internet of Things and machine-to-machine applications because of its ability to handle large numbers of connections.[/quote]
