I am speaking at ElixirConf EU. The talk is about an everything bagel of an app that has a truly ridiculous number of things in it. A production system that runs on Nerves and truly embodies what an Elixir monolith can be. Let me illustrate.

Do embedded with the BEAM? The Nerves Newsletter is adding segments to cover the wider BEAM embedded ecosystem. We're perhaps the loudest project but we see so much useful overlap and sharing with AtomVM, GRiSP, the new BEAM Bots, Meta Erlang.

I’ve been a very big fan of the Nerves Project since I first saw a conference talk about it. It was my path into Elixir.
