Before I try a web framework, I want to know if there's an easy way to do authentication, authorization and multitenancy. Multitenancy may have multiple approaches but am talking about something as simple as row-based…
Interestingly, for me it is the exact opposite, I tried Django/Python and it's more difficult for me to grok. Somehow I just find Rails easier and more straightforward.
Fair enough. In your opinion, is Gleeunit sufficient as a testing framework for Gleam or is it a work in progress which is also understandable as the language is still relatively young?
Gleeunit seems a bit sparse. I just see a few functions. For example how do I do mocks? Is this the the whole testing story assuming I am not targeting JS?
Gleam is a fantastic language but I didn't see much about testing apart from a very small package called gleeunit which is a binding to Erlang eunit. If I don't know anything about Erlang, how do I do tests in Gleam? I…

Looks nice but am curious about how you connect to and use a database. Is there some middleware or library to do this?
I understand they are already modifying the vaccine to handle the B.1.351 variant so all that will be needed is a third booster shot for people who have already got the AZ vaccine.
Isn't GraphQL supposed to solve this problem? You have one GraphQL API and each client requests only the information it needs. Maybe the responses are still JSON but I would think you would come very close to an API…

I have been using Elixir for about a year and the only problems I have found is the much smaller ecosystem. It's still a niche language. This means you may be the first one to encounter some problems although I have…
Maybe am mistaken but isn't a language that hasn't reached version 1 by its nature supposed to have breaking changes. It is expected that while you can use the language for your projects there is no guarantee that new…
I think it is. Not because there were other potential Pandemics but because of the timing of the Virus. Its comes at a time when social media is in widespread use which means misinformation spreads rapidly which also…

Simply amazing
Does Phoenix 1.3.0 fully support Elixir 1.5? I keep getting warnings when compiling since I upgraded to Elixir 1.5.
