Building Resilience in Elixir Development

In this talk, the speaker shares personal experiences of shipping features only to face changing requirements that required them to rebuild several times, specifically highlighting a complex Phoenix form. They discuss the feelings of frustration and doubt that arose during this process and how they transformed this into a journey towards becoming a more resilient engineer. By reframing rework as a form of adaptive growth and emphasizing the importance of community support, the speaker offers practical, lightweight habits for Elixir and Phoenix teams to maintain momentum and clarity while adjusting to shifting requirements.
