Phoenix

Phoenix framework - speed and maintainabality without compromise.

A programming language is nothing without the right supporting framework within which it can really flex its muscles. For Elixir web applications development, the Phoenix framework can often be a clever choice. Phoenix provides a standard way to develop web applications, including modules and standard practices to help shorten development time over using pure Elixir.

Working with Elixir and Phoenix web development allows us to operate from the functional programming paradigm, which is best suited to some applications over others. The resulting code is fast performing for returning requests, uses a small amount resources, and scales very well.

Phoenix has been gaining popularity with development companies in the USA particularly to implement real time web services. Companies include Bleacher Report, to build fast API servers, Brightcove, an online video platform who use it to process event streams, Voxolab, a speech recognition company who used it to generate word clouds in real time from speech, Whisper, the anonymous social media app, and more.

Elixir with Phoenix can be a great choice for your web application development, if concurrency, performance, and real time communication are important aspects of your project. It is just one option to choose from alongside others such as Ruby on Rails (which is more mature hence has more advanced ecosystem) and Sinatra with Ruby (which can be very effective when implementing a lot of features from scratch). One particular technology stack will stand out from the others when considering a given project, which is why, at iRonin, we don’t limit ourselves to just one option.
