QFM034: Elixir Reading List September 2024
Everything that I found interesting about the Elixir programming ecosystem during September 2024
In September’s Elixir Reading List, we start with a focus on how Elixir can power both flexibility and reliability. Adapter and Strategy Patterns in Elixir demonstrates how these design patterns enhance code maintainability, showcasing the benefits of adaptable interfaces in high-performance applications such as payment processing. Similarly, Config.exs is Simple and Other Lies by Łukasz Niemier dives into the complexities of configuration management, emphasising the pitfalls and solutions that come with configuring Elixir applications effectively.
Admin interface creation also makes a notable appearance this month. Building Beautiful Admin Dashboards in Phoenix with Backpex offers insights into setting up clean, user-friendly dashboards in Phoenix using Backpex, which can enhance productivity in admin environments. On a similar note, LiveView Modules Must End in ‘Live’ provides a closer look at naming conventions within Phoenix LiveView, exploring the implications for maintainability and avoiding compilation errors. These articles underscore the importance of a structured approach in Elixir applications, particularly for developers building scalable, responsive interfaces.
