Authorization and Policy Scopes for Phoenix Apps
While it is definitely possible to roll out something by hand, it usually makes sense not to reinvent the wheel if well-maintained and tested libraries are available. Canada and Bodyguard are two of the more popular ones that I have seen in the community.

There are packages on Hex that haven't been updated in a long time but still work perfectly (Canada, for example: https://github.com/jarednorman/canada). Elixir itself doesn't change much... in fact there's no plans for a 2.0 on the horizon, so the fact that packages don't change often isn't a big deal if they still do what they say they do and aren't hurting for more features.

Do you use it for server side game logic too?
It's not as ambitious as an MMO, but I like to use MUDs to learn new languages. I've been (slowly) working on one to learn Elixir and I'm actually finding the concurrency model somewhat difficult to use for the MUD - especially the single world that every player connects to.
I ended up writing my own kind of software transactional memory library to help me out: https://github.com/stevbov/stm_agent
But relying on a library like this feels fairly un-Elixir-like. It seems like the language would shine more in a problem space where there's not so much potential for arbitrary processes to depend upon eachother.
