Invisible Threads: Group email without the exposure
Invisible Threads is built with Elixir, Phoenix, and most importantly, Postmark. Data lives on disk instead of a traditional database to keep the demo light. Authentication uses Postmark API tokens, mapping each application user directly to a Postmark server. The whole thing is deployed to Fly.io. A minimal setup let me focus on Postmark's offerings.

Ash Framework – Model your domain, derive the rest
That's certainly more helpful, yeah! My biggest complaint is that that's really not particularly obvious from the home page; I didn't realise the highlighted words in the lead were links, and they're all to a diverse set of locations, which I'm unlikely to check out if I just want a ten-thousand-foot view of the framework.
I'd suggest putting a description similar to your last paragraph on the home page, and including a brief example of what that translates to. Phoenix's website [0] does this beautifully: within the first page of scroll, I immediately know what it does and how it looks, and the following pages of scroll give me the detail I need to evaluate it properly.

Why we chose Elixir
After some time debating which technologies we should use, we decided to go with Elixir and Phoenix. In short, these tools gave us the productivity, stability, safety, and scalability (the company was planning on opening up the application to the public, with a new API added to the mix, so future performance was a bit of a concern) that seemed appropriate for the company's plans.

Franz, a easy http-kafka gateway with a rich config file, swagger generation and avro support.
I would not compare this application with Confluent rest proxy, they don't compete directly. With Confluent's Rest Proxy you basically expose all your kafka internals as a REST API, so I don't think it is well suited to expose it to your clients or front-end. You don't have total control of the REST API on Confluent's REST proxy, they have a fixed interface, on Franz you define all the routes, the parameters each route accepts, the validation of the routes, the kafka topics used and so on. Franz was inspired by [Reactive interaction gateway](https://github.com/Accenture/reactive-interaction-gateway), even though is a small subset of it. RIG was too complex and too bloated for my use case. What I wanted is a simple REST to kafka proxy with a single and portable binary and highly configurable without recompiling any code.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Phoenix and RIG you can also consider the following projects:
sugar - Modular web framework for Elixir
kitto - Kitto is a framework for interactive dashboards written in Elixir
Django - The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines.
rackla - Open Source API Gateway in Elixir
trot - An Elixir web micro-framework.
