To Preserve domain reputation, use subdomains for sending emails, instead of the main domain.

Use http://mails.example.com instead of http://example.com

It’s working “smarter” 𝘢𝘯𝘥 “harder.”

Or at least, working “smart” (i.e. good strategy and prioritization) and “hard” (enough hours, and efficiently).

You probably already work hard; here’s how to work smarter.
Ruthless prioritization while the dog pees on the floor
Because time is zero-sum, prioritization is mandatory. This is an index of purpose-built prioritization frameworks, and an overarching one to optimize your life.

PSA: Stripe webhooks do not arrive in order. Use oban to handle this 🚀.

✅ event received in stipe handler (ex: invoice created). Add to oban.
✅ Inside oban worker, check if dependent event ( ex: subscription) is handled before processing invoice event , else retry .

Phoenix has PubSub for realtime event notifications.

Did you know you can get similar functionality with Postgres using Listen and pg_notify?

Phoenix + presence tracking = real-time user dashboards with connection info, device info, and more.🚀🚀

Phoenix LiveView can handle UI interactions that normally require some gnarly state management + React. No JS bundle, no headache. ⚡

Why does the last 20% always feel like grunt work 😂😂😂.

Pushing through and finsihing the project will make you the real MVP 😎.

Your tech stack should feel like a sidekick, not a burden. Pick tools that empower you.

What is your goto stack?

Did you know? Phoenix channels aren't just for chat — they’re perfect for streaming live app updates to clients.

Channels paired with Flutter. Chefs kiss 🤌.

Elixir processes > threads. Let the BEAM do your concurrent work without anxiety.

Elixir/Phoenix - come for the realtime features, concurrency and performance.

Stay for the peace of mind. No JS drama here 😎.

So you are looking for an alternative to 👇

clerk -> Phoenix
upstash -> Phoenix
zod -> Ecto schemas
SSR/Hydration -> Phoenix Liveview
webhooks -> Phoenix controllers
trigger.dev -> Genservers, Oban

Simplify your life.

Firebase is not the only backend option for building apps.

Phoenixframework is a fantastic alternative - realtime, concurrent and blazing fast

Last year for a brief period i was on a roll creating youtube videos and then i stopped. I wish i had continued 😅.

I find recording a bit intimidating (still) and editing cumbersome.

Time to get back in the grind.
