I've been having a great time with @ash-hq.org and I highly recommend it to anyone doing "serious computing".

The Ash Framework book by @sevensea.cat and @zachdaniel.dev is a great resource for the "Ash way" 🧘‍♂️

One has to do one's own wax on, wax off though (as always).

Zach Daniel @zachdaniel.dev · Aug 15

I'm fully aware of how I sound to people when I tell them that they only had a bad experience with @ash-hq.org because they used it wrong 😂. #ElixirLang

The results of the StackOverflow Survey 2025 are out!

Phoenix is yet again the most admired web framework! 🎉

Elixir fell from 2nd to 3rd place of most admired language because another BEAM language, ✨Gleam✨ took over the 2nd spot this year! Congrats Gleamers!

#ElixirLang @gleam.run #GleamLang

A screenshot of the Admired vs Desired Web Framework results of the 2025 StackOverflow survey. 1st place goes yet again to the Phoenix framework, closely folled by the Axum framework, which is written in Rust.

A screenshof of the "Admired vs Desired" Programming languages results of the StackOverflow 2025 survey results. 1st place goes to Rust with 72.4% developers admiring the language, Gleam comes in 2nd with 70.8%, and Elixir follows closely with 65.9%. Erlang comes in at 50%.
