We'll start you on the top Elixir & Phoenix projects - refine anytime. · Read a sample issue →
Elixir & Phoenix
Phoenix shipped two critical transport fixes overnight: LongPoll can now send tokens via headers instead of query parameters, and LiveView components marked for deletion now force a full render to prevent orphaned DOM.

Elixir & Phoenix
Date.range now surfaces ArgumentError instead of Protocol.UndefinedError when passed invalid step values, catching a class of bugs that silently fail in production code.

Elixir & Phoenix
Phoenix Live View shipped five structural improvements overnight, from cancellable client-side navigation to diagnostic namespacing, while Elixir's core team refactored map fetch code to eliminate duplication.

Elixir & Phoenix
Ecto's query planner now handles subqueries correctly in interpolated join filters, while Elixir fixes a syntax error that broke 'not in' as a continuation operator in IEx.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Barna Kovacs landed three optimization PRs removing dead code from core Enum and Calendar modules, while a separate fix addresses a flawed tuple projection algorithm that was producing inconsistent type representations.

Elixir & Phoenix
Phoenix LiveView closes a critical async task test failure while Elixir cuts unnecessary abs calls from Range operations.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
A reverted encryption fix exposes how Phoenix was leaking BEAM node identities through unencrypted upload tokens, and the core team is pivoting to a cleaner solution using term_to_binary.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Alexander Gubarev landed five targeted fixes to Calendar.ISO and ParallelCompiler that close gaps in time parsing, validation guards, and documentation.

Elixir & Phoenix
The compiler stops misinterpreting profile flags, string reversal handles invalid UTF8 correctly, and Ecto gains fragment column selection in a wave of fixes that shores up core library reliability.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Ecto's new with_columns/2 lets you assign names to SQL fragments, while Phoenix now handles module plugs with options in pipe_through declarations.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Multi-clause function analysis now runs significantly faster after the core team eliminated unnecessary list allocations in disjoint argument checking.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Two critical Ecto bugs that silently corrupt changeset data are now fixed, and you should merge these immediately if you're using map or association updates.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
The compiler just got smarter about preventing exponential blowup in type intersection logic, while Phoenix Live View stops wastefully copying keyed comprehensions that aren't moving.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Phoenix Live View shipped a critical websocket memory exhaustion fix in its dependency chain, while Ecto quietly resolved a data integrity bug in relationship change detection.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Enum.min and Enum.max were silently returning wrong results when you passed a custom sorter on ranges, and the core team just caught it.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Phoenix LiveView 1.2.7 ships an emergency security fix for a scheme validation bypass that could let attackers inject malicious URLs into your application.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Elixir core shipped three precision fixes overnight that tighten specs on IEx and EEx utilities, catching the kind of type mismatches that slip past dialyzer.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
The Elixir team shipped fixes for two long-standing IDE friction points: cursor completion after operators and proper type signatures for the ++ concatenation operator.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
NaiveDateTime.diff/3 has been silently rounding elapsed time up instead of down, breaking its documented contract and potentially causing logic errors in any code relying on time-based calculations.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Elixir is closing the gap between what its standard library promises and what it actually delivers, while Phoenix cuts a dependency on the compiler that was constraining its evolution.
