    No. Not even close. But it's getting better.

    There are currently two worth mentioning:

    ElixirLSP: https://github.com/elixir-lsp/elixir-ls

    Elixir tools: https://www.elixir-tools.dev/

    ElixirLSP is the older project, and has been around for a while. It does a lot, but has had sporadic issues over the years. Things like the debugger are a dog to get working, and the server itself will occasionally run into issues where it just doesn't want to work. It's always sort of focused on a subset of language server features, so don't expect much in the way of inline corrections. But it's got the essentials, formatting, basic linting, type hinting, on demand documentation, and primitive reference navigation

    Elixir tools is a new up and comer, written by Mitchell Hanberg. It's aiming to be a more complete lsp, and has plugins in its "ecosystem" for most editors. Features have been arriving rapidly, starting with things like inline corrections and far more reliable linting, and recently growing autocomplete. One of the main selling points is the elixir-tools backend is a self contained binary, so it can mostly work independent of system Elixir/Erlang version, which was a frequent tripping point for ElixirLSP

    Personally I use both at the same time, but plan to move to tools only when it's got all the features I need

  • Lightweight dev tools.
    14 projects | dev.to | 10 Aug 2023
    I decided I can live without elixir-ls when couching in return for having a usable editor. When the plugin ecosystem and documentation matures I can see myself switching to using Lapce for my primary editor.
  • GNU Debugger "GDB" Adds Support For Microsoft's Debug Adapter Protocol
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 3 Mar 2023
    Hi! I've compiled gdb from master and installed it. When I run gdb -i dap, I get JSON-RPC, so it looks like it's working, but I'm lost as to where to go from here. Does your change enable me to use a tool like https://github.com/elixir-lsp/elixir-ls with GDB now, right? How might I use them together? What would be required to then have GDB debugging over DAP from inside Emacs?

    Elixir-ls provides Language Server Protocol support as well as VS Code Debug Protocol support which gives extra powers to VS Code, NeoVim, Emacs, and the like

  • [Elixir] Apprentice, a new alchemist.el fork
    5 projects | /r/emacs | 8 Dec 2022
    BUT, with the news that in the next Emacs version eglot (lsp client) is going to be in the core, I decide to modify alchemist in a different way, enhancing other capabilities and letting eglot do what he best does (which is the functionality of elixir-ls).

  • Using a Custom Language Server in Fleet?
    2 projects | /r/Jetbrains | 19 Oct 2022
    elixir-ls powers the VSCode experience, and while it works decently, I've never really clicked with VSCode. In general, for other languages, I tend to use Jetbrain's Products. I would love to give fleet a whirl, and I know in the background it can use the Language Server Protocol to support many of the languages it currently ships with.
  • Getting Started Using Nix Flakes As An Elixir Development Environment
    2 projects | dev.to | 9 Jan 2022
    Now it doesn't mean that immediately reading this starter guide, you will have everything under the sun set up with Nix Flakes for your development need. But at least, you won't have to worry about setting up asdf, your weird hacks you need for your machine and the other tiny little things to get elixir started with elixir-ls.
  • Extreme lag on INSERT_MODE when coding in Elixir with lspconfig

    I have a minimal lspconfig with coq_nvim with elixirls and tsserver. The problem is that whenever i code on elixir everything becomes slow.
  • This new VS Code Update
    1 project | /r/ProgrammerHumor | 27 Jun 2021
    Well I know one extension that runs your code, elixir-ls. I believe it scans your code and runs dialyzer, a static analysis tool, which runs your code and generates types based on it.

  • Show HN: Podsee – AI tool for podcast listeners
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 18 Oct 2023
    Hi everyone, I just launched Podsee(https://pods.ee) for podcast listeners, lovers. You can search and listen to podcasts at Podsee. What makes it different is that you can get the AI transcript for an episode.

    It started as a side project after I resigned my job one year ago. As a programmer, I love Elixir (http://elixir-lang.org/) and Phoenix LiveView(https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix_live_view), and want to make a product with it. So I build Podsee.

    I'm planning to add more AI features to it, like summarize the episode audio, episode to comics, etc.

    I'd love to invite you all to try out the product and would appreciate hearing your feedback! Thanks!

    "HTML over the wire" generally refers to tech like [0] Liveview, [1] Hotwire, [2] LiveView, [3] Blazor, etc. They aren't about about ditching JS and more about not writing your HTML in JS (and yes, SSR).

    Some of the 1.7 stuff has an alert banner that pops up when the connection is broken. I think that could really help.

    However I haven't put that in our app as I have seen other issues of flakey connection reconnect issues, and I would hate to make any of those more visible with a flashing notice.
