Introducing `steve`: a CLI for driving macOS apps.

Like playwright for browsers it's drivable by code agents. Tell them to "manually test using steve".

Claude Code generates #ElixirLang and Ash code like a champ, and it uses Tidewave MCP search the docs and to test all validations and changes and whatever else I ask it to build.

I feel Ash/Elixir are designed to encourage building bottom up, piece by piece, and Claude is very efficient for that.

Where should you put side effects in #Ash? 🤔

If you're using ‘before_action’ for API calls, you're probably doing it wrong.

New post by Alembian Conor Sinclair breaks down why transaction boundaries matter. Read it here: alembic.com.au/blog/ash-act...
Understanding the Ash Action Lifecycle
Ash actions are clean and declarative until you need to make a slow API call. Understanding the lifecycle means knowing exactly where that code should live.

Social media ban is official in Australia today for kids under 16. I asked my 13yo whether she’d been kicked out of any apps yet, and she responded that only SnapChat had.

I asked how she felt about that, and she said “honestly I’m kinda relieved”.

Maybe the kids will be alright after all?

Continuing my annual tradition of doing advent of code in @gleam.run. It's been a second since I've gotten the chance to write some Gleam and I'm absolutely blown away with how good the LSP has gotten, such a lovely programming experience!

the book helped a lot and seeing its usage. we use it too. when i am done with our caching rewrite i will publish something on that too. will cover a different kind of ash usage where we mix and match between ash simple data layer and normal resources for nebulex caching

it’s just so productive

FWIW this also seems to be the case with languages. I've had a surprising amount of success with anything statically typed that has a small surface area (Gleam has hit this sweet spot for me lately).

The state of Elixir is out! @curiosum.bsky.social had some #AshFramework questions in there, and *24%* of respondents use Ash.

James is most seen in the Ash space but he has plenty of embedded experience and he tried turning his Reactor saga runner to the Nerves boot process. Learn how Reacto works and what it could be used for entirely separate from Ash.

This is a very interesting and quite surprising result! I don’t think I expected the Ash numbers to be this high
Absinthe being number 3 is a bit wild. GraphQL really got out there. But there is also the challenge of there not being that many larger libraries and frameworks beyond Phoenix and Ash that will fit with mainstream usage.

Note that Ash may shortly be in 1/4 of Elixir projects.
