correct. I was just wondering if it also has inbuilt http server as well to process things like static files etc or is that completely on 3rd party tools like nginx (which I love btw). Kinda like in Golang where you could technically use the static file server but I always use nginx for those things.

Cowboy is Elixir's built-in HTTP server. You can configure things like Nginx or Haproxy as you would with most other frameworks.

  It's more an Erlang http server used by Phoenix ;)

  Cowboy is not made in Elixir and it's not built-in. It's an HTTP server made in Erlang (which Elixir can call at no runtime cost): https://github.com/ninenines/cowboy https://github.com/ninenines/cowboy
