Would you mind linking to a couple of them? I don't know anything about Elixir (but am very comfortable in a lot of other languages), and am interested in the kind of thing more experienced people are using with Elixir. Thanks!
- jeremyjh 6y agoFor web applications, Phoenix is very popular: https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix; https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix; it uses some OTP directly and its dependencies like the web-server Cowboy use it as well. DB development usually uses Ecto: https://github.com/elixir-ecto/ecto https://github.com/elixir-ecto/ecto, it has OTP servers for connection pooling and other tasks. For managing background tasks I use Honeydew: https://github.com/koudelka/honeydew https://github.com/koudelka/honeydew

- pythonaut_16 6y agoPhoenix is a good example. It makes great use of OTP, but you don't really need to touch OTP when using it to build web applications. You can, and your life as an Elixir dev will certainly be easier if you have some understanding of OTP, but it works great as a web framework even if you don't.
