One of the Erlang's strongest selling point is to come packaged with everything you need. But sometimes you have to find it.

Did you know you can use regular expression to find elements by text with Floki?

Phoenix is the exciting new kid on the block in the vast world of web frameworks. Its roots are in Rails, with the bonus of the performances of a compiled language.
This time we're going to explore the assets pipeline.

This isn't exactly a getting started guide, but a list (albeit short) of things you'll have to know very soon in the process of writing a Phoenix application, that are just a bit beyond the writing a blog engine in 15 minutes by using only the default generators.

This is the third in a series of articles on building a brainfuck interpreter in Elixir. In the first part we built a minimal brainfuck interpreter that can already run some basic program. In the second part we completed it by implementing loops. In this third episode we'll write a simple compiler to translate Brainfuck instructions to a machine readable intermediate format (AST) and a VM that executes it.

This is the second in a series of articles on building a brainfuck interpreter in Elixir. In the first part we built a minimal brainfuck interpreter that can already run some basic program. In this second part we'll finish it implementing loop handling.

Brainfuck is an tiny, crazy, esoteric, turing complete, programming language made of only 8 instructions. The perfect language to write an interpreter for, the perfect small project to learn about Elixir fun!
