Products that do what ProgrammerHumor.io – WordPress to Phoenix Liveview ~ 7x faster does
I migrated programmerhumor.io from WordPress to Elixir/Phoenix and the results are mind-blowing. The site is now blazingly fast with dramatically reduced server load and zero crashes. No more WordPress plugin hell with constant conflicts, security patches, and performance degradation. Phoenix LiveView made the UX significantly smoother than the WordPress version. The migration process was surprisingly manageable thanks to Phoenix's clean conventions, which helped untangle the WordPress spaghetti schema. My only regret is not making the switch sooner.

Author here. I really love the programming paradigm behind by Phoenix LiveView applications and wanted to expand the ecosystem to include programmers like myself that love Typescript. In summary, LiveViewJS reuses all the Phoenix client code and implemented a new backend in Typescript to handle client events and send back updates. Lots more detail and examples in the repo. Would love any questions and/or feedback. Thanks!

I've been writing Elixir for 5 years and made plenty of sites with Phoenix and LiveView but my biggest gripe has always been with the lack of quality UI components available. The JS ecosystem has so many, and it's the one thing I miss from being primarily a React & Node developer. So this is my attempt at bringing some pretty and useful components most applications need to Phoenix projects to try and fill in the gaps between what makes LiveView such a productive joy to work with. The library is very very raw and requires some initial clean up so PRs are very welcome to tidy up the DX as well…

Hello everyone! I'm currently in a journey to learn and improve my Elixir and Go skills (my daily job uses C++) and looking through my backlog for projects to take on I decided Elixir is the perfect language to write a highly-parallel BitTorrent tracker. So I have spent my free time these last 3 months writing one! Now I think it has enough features to present it to the world (and a docker image to give it a quick try). I know some people see trackers as relics of the past now that DHT and PEX are common but I think they still serve a purpose in today's Internet (purely talking about public…

Hi HN, I'm opening up the beta for IndigoStack. It's a native macOS app which provides a fresh take on how to run all the services you need for local web development. I've been building it for myself as a Laravel & Drupal developer and I'm now looking to get some beta testers on board! Check it out, and don't forget to sign up to the forums to give us your feedback! https://indigostack.app My motivation: Like many developers I've developed a love-hate relationship with the existing options for local development on a Mac. If they're virtualised, you'll often get... * high CPU usage…

I built this after wanting to add comments to my own blog and not finding any good options. Discovering high-quality posts on small personal sites is one of my favorite things about HN.

Hacker Live is a client for Hacker News that provides live updates to lists and comments. I’ve built this to get into Elixir / Phoenix / LiveView development. The UI follows HN look and feel for the most part, with a few opinionated tweaks and additions: - Sticky comment summaries to help keep track of the discussion context in nested comment threads - Subtitles on list entries and summaries on story pages generated by an LLM to help you decide whether a given article is worth your time - List entries link to the discussion page by default - Surfacing of links in comments to…

Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

HNLive is a small Elixir/Phoenix/LiveView web app showing the top 10 (by score or number of comments) newest HackerNews stories in "real time" (i.e. as quickly as updates become available via the HackerNews API). You should find the app running on https://hntop10.gigalixirapp.com - please note that this is running on the free tier with limited memory and resources. GitHub: https://github.com/gstipi/hnlive The motivation for building HNLive was twofold: 1. I had read and heard many good things about Elixir, Phoenix and LiveView, and after watching Chris…
