Here's what the latest issue looks like:

Issue #284

Welcome to Issue #284

This is the last issue for the year.

2021 has been an exciting year for the Elixir community, with the success of Nx and Livebook, to name a few.

One thing that really hypes me is Phoenix's move to ESBuild, so that we no longer need to install Node for web projects. The Tailwind project also released a standalone version of its CSS toolchain (check the blog post below to see how to utilize this in Phoenix).

Let's have a great, less COVID-y 2022 ✌

Questions & Answers

Can I submit things I made to be included in the next issue?

Yes! Simply post them to ElixirStatus and you can be sure that they land on my radar.

Is my email address safe with you?

Yes. I'd like to consider myself a trustworthy individual, but then who doesn't?

I am, however, an active member of the open-source Elixir community and the maintainer of Credo and ElixirStatus. I will NOT ruin my reputation by selling your data to a third party.

Why do you require me to confirm my email address?

I just believe that requiring double opt-in to subscribe to any email-based system is a win for both parties: You are safe from unintentionally subscribing and I can be confident that you actually own the email address and want to receive the newsletter I send you :)
