HEXDOCS URL FORMAT SHIFT LANDS IN ELIXIR CORE

By RepoJournal · Filed 06:04 UTC on May 31, 2026 · About Elixir & Phoenix

Elixir is standardizing on package.hexdocs.pm URLs, replacing the older hexdocs.pm/package format across the ecosystem.

The change [1] updates how Elixir references documentation links, moving to a subdomain-based URL structure that aligns with modern hex.pm conventions. This is a subtle but important shift for anyone generating docs programmatically or maintaining tooling that parses or generates hexdocs links. The old format still works, but new code should adopt the package.hexdocs.pm pattern going forward. Expect hex-adjacent tools and doc generators to follow suit over the next few releases.

Action items

→ Review doc generation tooling for hardcoded hexdocs.pm/package URLs elixir-lang/elixir [plan]
→ Update any custom doc link builders to use package.hexdocs.pm format elixir-lang/elixir [monitor]
