for anyone on the fence on elixir. I built my startup in phoenix 3 years ago and its been a great platform.
- neoecos 4y agoWhat's your start up? How phoenix helped? I'm having some issues about keeping productive with LiveView
- cultofmetatron 4y agomy startup is a pos system for restaurants for ios. (https://blinqme.com/ https://blinqme.com/) we don't use liveview but we do use channels heavily in our product to provide realtime synchronization accross all devices at the restaurant. additionally, the performance has been fantastic while having a developer productivity rivaling python. the backend mostly consists of a monolithic graphql api.
- KRAKRISMOTT 4y agoYour landing page takes forever to load
- cultofmetatron 4y agoyea I agree. we need to change that. the frontpage is wordpress and I've been wanting to get that moved to laravel for awhile now.
- victorbjorklund 4y agoWhy not the frontpage in phoenix too?
- cultofmetatron 4y agonot a good use of phoenix. sure it could be used for that but its cheaper to hire a php programmer to maintain it. our core api server which powers our apps is elixir because it is the best solution to that. our frontend doesn't need heavy interaction like a typical saas app would require so its not like we need liveview there either. basically, not enough reward for the effort.
