We recently moved to an OpenCollective for @ash-hq.org, and I'm happy to announce that we've successfully had our first feature PR merged as a result of offering a bounty! You can now paginate included relationships in AshJsonApi 🎉 Shout to to @sriky27.bsky.social! Great work 😎

Another 🔥 package release from @maennchen.dev 😎
AshDiagram is a library for generating beautiful diagrams to visualize your #AshFramework applications. Generate Entity Relationship, Class, C4 Architecture, and Policy diagrams directly from your Ash resources and domains. 🚀

Got a PR in to #ElixirLang to fix a pretty rough footgun I noticed. Running the following code in an iex console could lead to a very bad day 😅. What do you think this code does in iex?

Still work to do, but a PR to address this behavior is here: github.com/elixir-lang/...

Holy shit holy shit holy shit holy shit guys the #AshFramework book is in my hands 🤯 Pippin is a fan too.

Oh, yknow, just vibe coding a full-stack-typed #React SPA with #AshFramework, #ElixirLang, #Phoenix using #Tidewave. No biggie.
September 22, 2025 at 2:51 AM
One command now gets you a React SPA with full-stack types, backed by #AshFramework, #Phoenix, and #ElixirLang 🤯

Install and visit localhost:4000/ash-typescript for a handy guide 😎

Finally, a bridge to the reliability + elegance of Elixir for our React-loving friends!

What if you had *full stack types* for SPAs built with tech like #React, #Inertia, #Vue, #Svelte... but all of the power #AshFramework and #ElixirLang on the backend? Well, you can now.😉 hexdocs.pm/ash_typescri...

@maennchen.dev has just released the first version of Clarity: hexdocs.pm/clarity/Clar...

Cinder from @sevensea.cat is🔥. Soon: Add filters for fields that aren't rendered as part of your table, with :filter slots! Use all of filter options as columns, like selects/multiselects, datetimes, or case-sensitivity for text fields. #ElixirLang #AshFramework

Three of the top 5 best sellers on @pragprog.com right now are Elixir/Erlang books. This is what we call in the industry "making it". #ElixirLang #AshFramework

Did some mob coding with Tidewave from @josevalim.bsky.social during the Ash AI hackathon yesterday. It was "smart" enough to spot an attempt at prompt injection on a web page and navigate away to a different page to do the development work I was requesting. Pretty neat!

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

I usually have a helper like this for conditional classes in my projects too.

I'm shutting down my personal GitHub sponsors in favor of an open collective that will be used to transparently fund Ash related expenses and also contribute financially to projects that matter to Ash & Elixir!

Hey @steffend.me look what you did to igniter downloads 🤣

hexdocs.pm/usage_rules and @anthropic.com's Claude Code sub-agents play really well together 😎

1. Create an elixir programmer sub-agent
2. sync usage rules with it, instead of your CLAUDE.md
3. Profit
