My latest video explores Reactor for workflow orchestration. Concurrent execution, automatic rollbacks on failure, and of course: it works with Ash AI.

As the morning progresses, we can't help but think back to @sasajuric.bsky.social's Tell Me a Story conference yesterday.

It was one of the most memorable our team have ever seen.

We can't wait to share some highlights with you.

New #ElixirLang tool

LivebookTools lets you work on Livebook in your own editor and opens MCP access to cell outputs(so Cursor, etc) can automatically iterate on the code if the cell has errors

When your app is made from introspectable data structures, you get superpowers. The AshAI (experimental) extension lets you select actions to expose to an action, and with no other configuration, you're chatting with your app! #AshFramework #ElixirLang www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZVs...

Holy smokes this is awesome, a new debugger for Phoenix LiveView. Think React devtools, but not a chrome extension.

You can now view all AshJsonApi generated routes thanks to @kenkost.bsky.social! The installers for new apps do this automatically, but if you are a current @ash-hq.org user you should create an alias (if you use either of these two packages). A huge QoL improvement 🎉 #ElixirLang #AshFramework

ExDoc v0.36 is out and it uses swup.js for navigation when hosted. You can compare the results here:

* hexdocs.pm/elixir/main/ (with swup.js)
* hexdocs.pm/elixir/1.18.1/ (without)

Let us know how it feels and don't forget to "mix deps.update ex_doc" in your packages!
