Here is everything I found interesting about the Elixir programming ecosystem during February 2024.

This month's reading list highlights include Merquery an interactive HTTP client integrated with Livebook, and the critique piece Elixir Nitpicks which offers an insightful comparison of Elixir with Rust, discussing the language's strengths and weaknesses in error handling, state management, and more. The video Elixir: The Wickedly Awesome Batch and Stream Processing Language You Should Have in Your Toolbox illustrates Elixir's powerful application in data engineering, particularly in stream and batch processing within Apple's ads platform.

A common theme across February's links is the emphasis on Elixir's role in simplifying complex processes, whether through innovative tooling like PhoenixTest for HTTP requests and feature testing, or application in real-world healthcare scenarios such as Waterpark.

Enjoy!
