• Install mutiple Erlang and Elixir with vfox

  If you've been using asdf to manage and maintain multiple versions of Erlang and Elixir, then vfox is also a good choice for you. - Source: dev.to / 20 days ago

• Perfect Elixir: Environment Setup

  I’m on MacOS and erlang.org, elixir-lang.org, and postgresql.org all suggest installation via Homebrew, which is a very popular package manager for MacOS. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Reliability in Legacy Software

  But regardless of their reasons, they'll note that the service is easily meeting its SLOs. It was written in a highly performant, if idiosyncratic language, and uses patterns which give it a high level of resilience and the ability to recover from many situations automatically. The service is steady as a rock, and left to its own devices will more or less chug along indefinitely once deployed. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Meet entr, the standalone file watcher

  As you might have guessed, one of the main use cases for entr is to rerun tests whenever files change. I'm an Elixir engineer, and I use entr to run mix test continuously whenever I save an Elixir file. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Good Bye CRUD APIs, Hello Sync: Realtime PostgreSQL with ElectricSQL

  The diagram demonstrates the communication pathway between the browser and the Postgres database through the Electric service. Essentially, Electric Sync Service, an Elixir application, orchestrates active-active data replication between the user's local DB and Postgres. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Veryl: A Modern Hardware Description Language

  Of course it does! What else would you call something like chicken scheme [https://call-cc.org/], ats [https://ats-lang.sourceforge.net/], or ghc [https://www.haskell.org/ghc/]? They are not "scripts", they are full-blown compilers that happen to use C as their compilation target, and then leverage C compilers to generate code for a variety of architecures. it's a very sensible way to do things. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• The Rise & Fall of LISP - Too Good For The Rest Of the World

  CHICKEN Scheme \ CHICKEN is a compiler for the Scheme programming language. It produces portable and efficient C and supports the R5RS and R7RS (work in progress) standards, and many extensions. It runs on Linux, OS X, Windows, many Unix flavours... Source: about 1 year ago

• Ante: A low-level functional language

  If you’re fine with tracing GC (which depends on the situation, of course), Standard ML is a perfectly boring language (that IIUC predated and inspired Caml) and MLton[1] is a very nice optimizing compiler for it. The language is awkward at times (in particular, the separate sublanguage of modules can be downright unwieldy), and the library has some of the usual blind spots such as nonexistent Unicode support... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• "matrico" 0.1 and "The Numerical Schemer"

  Enter matrico - a numerical Scheme module for, and fully written in, CHICKEN Scheme - which is an educational project on building a matrix-based numerical function library. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
