Do you think the Elixir ecosystem needs a stronger frontend story? 1. Yes - it's the biggest gap right now 2. Yes - but keep it server-rendered (better LiveView) 3. No - LiveView is enough for most of what we need 4. No strong opinion / depends on the project #elixirlang #myelixirstatus #elixirprogramming #elixirconfeu #hologram

Last year, we brought our knowledge from the cloud to paper, and the response was incredible. We released the Elixir Adoption Guide during the ElixirConf® in Poland. From that moment, it's been available for download: 💜 curiosum.com/ebooks/elixir-a… To continue the tradition, the paper, limited edition, you can get it again in Malaga this year. Make sure to visit us early and grab your copy; last time, they finished quickly! Let us know that you're interested so we can predict the batch. #elixirconfeu #elixiradoptionguide #myelixirstatus #elixirlang #elixirprogramming

Big news coming! 🔥 We're officially teaming up with Hologram as a Main Sponsor for this innovative full-stack Elixir framework that’s pushing boundaries and showing what Elixir can really do on the frontend.

We believe in Hologram’s vision and see huge potential in bringing full-stack Elixir development to the next level. We’re excited to help shape that future, and that means more features, faster development, and stronger community focus. Got questions? Ideas? Let us know! #hologram #curiosum #elixir #myelixirstatus #elixirlang #elixirprogramming

Permit.Phoenix v0.4.0 is out! This release is all about smoother Phoenix LiveView auth with saner defaults: ✅ Phoenix Scopes support (Phoenix 1.8 ) — authorize via :current_scope when you want multi-tenant / extra context ✅ Smarter route-based “singular action” inference (less manual config) ✅ :skip_preload replaces :preload_actions (opt-out instead of opt-in) ✅ Better default unauthorized behavior in LiveView less assign interference Release notes: 👉 lnkd.in/dssxeYFF Read more about the Permit: 👉 lnkd.in/d-ztgHcS #permit #opensource #phoenixframework #elixirlang #myelixirstatus #elixirprogramming

Elixir Survey 2025: top languages people used before picking up Elixir (close race): 21,7% C / C 21,4% Bash / Shell 20,7% C# 18,6% Go If you’ve switched from one of these to Elixir, what was the biggest adjustment? What do you miss, and what’s better now? Full results: elixir-hub.com/surveys/2025 #elixirsurvey #elixirsurveyresults #myelixirstatus #elixirlang #elixirprogramming

Many teams are removing Alpine from PETAL because LiveView interoperability continues to improve. That’s often the right call. But if you still need Alpine for a specific component (multiselects, date pickers, drag/drop-ish UI), the real issue isn’t “should we use Alpine”. It’s “are we integrating it correctly?”. This is the setup we’ve landed on for Alpine LiveView, after dealing with the usual breakages: ➡️ preserve Alpine state during LV patches (cloneNode) ➡️ set server values in x-init (keep x-data for declarations) ➡️ JSON-encode assigns instead of interpolating raw values ➡️ compare by IDs, not object references ➡️ when Alpine owns the DOM, fence it off with phx-update="ignore" If your app is mostly LiveView but you still use Alpine for a few components, this is worth a read: 💜 curiosum.com/blog/fix-alpine… #myelixirstatus #elixirlang #elixirprogramming #elixir #phoenixframework #phoenixliveview #webdevelopment #alpinejs

This is part of this year’s Elixir Survey, and this one question says a lot about how the community actually learns Elixir. Docs lead by far. 90% say HexDocs & official docs are their go-to. Elixir is learned while building real projects, not by passively consuming content. Books still matter (68%) That’s high. Elixir attracts people who want fundamentals: OTP, processes, supervision - not shortcuts. Community > content Discussion boards (58%) beat blogs. Answers based on everyday experience matter more than polished posts. Talks & videos are support, not core Useful for ideas, rarely the final answer. AI at just 4% In 2025, that’s telling. AI helps, but docs and community are still more trusted for Elixir guidance. If you’re starting, learn to read documentation, pick one solid book, and utilize the community. More Elixir Survey 2025 insights soon. #elixirsurveyresults #elixirsurvey #elixirlang #elixirprogramming #myelixirstatus

While the results of the Elixir Survey 2025 are on, we start showing some specific answers. 👉 elixir-hub.com/surveys/2025 👈 No surprises at the top - Phoenix and LiveView are basically the default now. If you’re doing Elixir, you’re probably doing LiveView. The Ash vs Absinthe? That’s the interesting one. Absinthe had the space to itself for years. The pace Ash is growing at is genuinely surprising. Declarative tooling isn’t niche anymore - it’s becoming a real option for production work. Does this reflect what you're seeing in your teams/projects? #elixirsurveyresults #elixirsurvey #elixirlang #elixirprogramming #myelixirstatus

RESULTS of the Elixir Survey 2025 are ready! 🥳 From seniority levels to AI tooling and hosting choices, the data presents a clear picture of the ecosystem. Here’s the full report 👉 elixir-hub.com/surveys/2025 We're so grateful for your contribution and the time you spent sharing your experience and opinions about working with Elixir. The Elixir Survey is becoming bigger every year, and we're happy that so many of you want to be a part of this project. #elixirsurvey #elixirsurveyresults #elixirlang #myelixirstatus #elixirprogramming

Every great tech ecosystem starts with its people. When we started exploring Elixir, one of the most significant discoveries wasn’t just the language itself, but the community. From Discord channels and local meetups to Slack workspaces and online forums, there’s an incredible network of people pushing Elixir forward. If you’re looking to connect, learn, or just exchange ideas - check out this list of Elixir communities. 👉 elixir-hub.com/communities Maybe your favorite group is already there… or maybe it’s time to add it 😉 #elixirlang #myelixirstatus #elixirprogramming #elixircommunity

Even the best tech has its challenges - and Elixir is no exception. Last year’s survey revealed the top hurdles for teams using Elixir in production: 💡 Hiring skilled devs 💡 Missing open-source libraries 💡 Ecosystem maturity These insights help the whole community understand where to focus - more docs, more libraries, and more visibility for Elixir. Do these challenges still feel real in 2025? Or have things improved? We’re about to find out. Elixir Survey 2024 launches on October 31. 👉 elixir-hub.com/surveys #elixirsurvey #elixirlang #myelixirstatus #elixirprogramming #

How do Elixir developers actually structure their systems? The 2024 Elixir Survey gave us a clear picture of the situation. ⬇️ These numbers reveal that the community values stability and proven architectural approaches, while slowly experimenting with newer patterns. The full report with interesting and valuable statistics is now available on Elixir Hub. 👉 elixir-hub.com/surveys We're preparing for this year's upcoming edition of the Elixir Survey on October 31.

Monitoring isn’t just for ops teams anymore - developers working with Phoenix apps need visibility just as much. The combination of PromEx and Grafana gives you exactly that: 👉 Automatic collection of key metrics from the BEAM and Phoenix, 👉 Ready-to-use dashboards you can expand on, 👉 Real-time performance insights that help you prevent issues before they hit users. If you’re building production-ready apps with Phoenix, this knowledge might be good for you. 👉 Read the full guide: t.ly/wQx-D #elixir #elixirlang #myelixirstatus #elixirprogramming #promex #grafana

Kanta v0.4.2 is here! 💜 Now fully compatible with Phoenix 1.8. ➡️ github.com/curiosum-dev/kant… If you're not familiar, Kanta offers a user-friendly translation dashboard, database-based storage, caching for speed, and progress tracking - all without changing a single line of your existing code. Plugin support: ➡️ DeepL integration for automated machine translations ➡️ PO Writer plugin to re-export translations back to .po files #kanta #opensource #elixirprogramming #elixirlang #myelixirstatus

While our devs spend mornings writing code and then afternoons fixing it, they still find time to share their work and experience. Not all dev work ends up on GitHub. Some of it stays on our blog. 🙃 That's exactly what happened with a guide - how to build a Phoenix-based info station with Nerves.

What makes Elixir great? That’s what stood out in the last year Elixir Survey, where hundreds of Elixir developers rated their satisfaction across various dimensions of the language. ➡️ Concurrency (84%) ➡️ Fun & Joy of Development�(74.9%) ➡️ Fault tolerance (76.3%) It’s easy to see why Elixir is often chosen by teams solving complex backend problems: low-latency APIs, real-time features, pub/sub architectures, IoT, and more. But here’s the twist: performance and ecosystem were rated lowest, and scalability only mid-tier. Not due to weakness, but due to visibility. We know Elixir scales. Maybe what’s missing is enough noise around it? There's still time but slowly this year Elixir Survey 2025 is coming. If there's anything you'd like to ask the Elixir community, let us know and we'll consider it on October's edition. #elixirlang #myelixirstatus #devexperience #functionalprogramming #elixirprogramming
