Elixir & Phoenix
Elixir core shipped three complementary functions that finally give you safe, typed ways to convert strings and lists to atoms without opening yourself to DoS attacks.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
Elixir shipped fixes for a critical binary comprehension bug that broke pattern matching with options, while expanding the Access module to handle keyword lists alongside maps.
read --wire →
Elixir & Phoenix
The core Elixir library shipped five targeted optimizations overnight that collectively eliminate redundant computation across URI handling, string operations, and set algorithms, while Phoenix and LiveView align their tooling with Elixir 1.20's stricter compiler warnings.
