From my side, what I could do is to record and write some polished tutorials.
- about LiveView, and the newly introduced LiveView upload, I was thinking to make a “Build your wetransfer in 15 minutes with Phoenix LiveView”. I always loved wetransfer because it’s simple and shows beautiful pictures, so much that I five years ago I created a similar service with rails. My main issue was concurrency, which I partially solved with s3 direct upload… The second issue was the s3 download bill… but that’s another story.
What I mean is that, if it can help, I could create a dedicated and polished site with just this super simple tutorial (maybe in collaboration with someone else?
) to market the technology and simplicity. I’m not saying that it would change everything, just saying that it maybe could help to market these great tools.
- second, much larger project, it could be a dedicated course, or a free website, which just targets people who want to pick their first language.
However, if the adoption rate at the end comes from companies’ decisions, and the fact that there aren’t a lot of Elixir developers etc., it risks to become a chicken and egg problem.
I was also thinking, does a massive adoption bring only good things to a community like us?
