I've only just dipped my toes into Elixir and Phoenix but so far really loving it. I feel like I've noticed it popping up on here way more often lately or is that just the ol' frequency bias kicking in?


Perhaps a bit of both? There's been a bump in Elixir posts in the last year or two, which is awesome given that the hype cycle has died down now that the language has been stable for a few years.


There's been a lot of development in the Elixir ecosystem and so a lot to share.

Embedded with Nerves, the various AI/ML libraries and tooling, LiveBook getting better every day, LiveView innovating and improving DevEx, etc..

Then there's fly.io pushing out content given their target market is developers and they have a big focus on deploying Elixir applications.

aka Baader-Meinhof phenomenon

(since I learned about it, it keeps popping up everywhere)


I see what you are doing there. I'm actually seeing it more and more lately
