Phoenix.new – Remote AI Runtime for Phoenix

This is great. I had to back out of a phoenix project and rewrite it in Django because I couldn't get good AI assistance. I'm pretty inexperienced with Elixir and Phoenix but understand the benefits enough to want to make projects in it. So this is really cool.

I had this experience too. Though most of my issues were with my model not necessarily with Elixir itself so much as understanding the Phoenix model, state, and CLI. Maybe even differences in versions? Wasn't always clear.

I find that baffling. Why not just write the Elixir yourself?

Not just baffling, but concerning. LLM's are great for learning new languages, but terrible for outputting code you don't understand yet hope to maintain.

Yet, more and more people are going to be doing exactly this.
