Are there any open source Elixir projects that I could help with as a beginner?

  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS

  • tournamap

    Website to visualize Smash Ultimate tournaments near you

  • The tiny (we're talking less than a hundred lines) bit of backend logic for my smash tournament locator project is open source if you're looking for something really small to start with: https://github.com/perrycate/tournamap

  • wasmCloud

    wasmCloud allows for simple, secure, distributed application development using WebAssembly components and capability providers.

  • The wasmCloud project (https://wasmcloud.dev) has a number of areas where people can contribute. As someone else said, you can filter on "good first issue" to get an idea for what needs doing.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • notifiex

    A dead simple Elixir library for sending notifications to various messaging services. (supports file uploads, multiple notification dispatching, and much more! ✨) (by notifiex)

  • I don't want to advertise my project here again, but I feel that it would be great if someone could develop plugins for Notifiex (https://github.com/notifiex/notifiex), or could fix beginner-friendly issues!

  • pathex

    Fastest tool to access data in Elixir

  • One concrete idea in this vein is to create livebook docs for libraries that don't have them. One neat new library that I think could really benefit from this is https://github.com/hissssst/pathex

  • ice_cream

  • I don’t know of a tutorial but this library has a nice LiveBook doc: https://github.com/joseph-lozano/ice_cream

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
