Rise of The Phoenix - Building an Elixir Web Framework
summary
A new Elixir web framework claims to give Rails‑style productivity without sacrificing performance by compiling routes and templates to function clauses and using pattern matching for 100% route dispatch. It ships with channels: websocket + pubsub, a precompiled view layer and Plug‑based controllers, a tiny Phoenix JS client (~130 lines) plus a native iOS Swift client. A live chat demo works end‑to‑end and remote broadcasts from IEx hit connected browsers. Plans include service discovery, node registry and a 1.0 release.
