Episode Details

In this episode, we kick off with the major release of Bandit 1.0, an Elixir substitute for Cowboy, that's making an impact with its performance. We move on to the Elixir compiler's dev experience improvements in the upcoming Elixir v1.16. We then transition to talk about the various Language Server alternatives available, how their features compare, and the newly announced Erlang Language Server at CodeBEAM Europe. We talk about the newly added support of the Mistral LLM with the Bumblebee library and why this is interesting, the introduction of Permit - an authorization library for Phoenix apps, and more!
