Exploring Phenix Playground for Single File Phoenix Apps

In this talk recorded at ElixirConf EU 2024, Wojtek Mach shares his journey from being a PHP developer to working with Elixir. He demonstrates the ease of setting up and modifying PHP code, but points out his disinterest in continuing with PHP due to its programming model. He shifts focus to Elixir, introducing a project named Phenix Playground, which allows experimenting with single file Phoenix applications. Wojtek showcases how this tool facilitates development, akin to what developers might be familiar with in PHP, but using modern Elixir features like LiveView. Phenix Playground is available on Hex and GitHub, providing a convenient environment for Elixir developers to build and test Phoenix applications.
