Beginner or pro, Author & expert Bruce Tate's tailored approach to Elixir training will help you think beyond routine code to beautifully designed software.
AI tools improved faster than our ability to use them well. The magical sprint was real. What we drew from it was wrong — we treated the conditions that made it work as the new baseline, and organized our optimism, our staffing, and our planning around that assumption.

This is the shape: velocity up, judgment thin, juniors stuck, seniors flinching, dashboards counting the wrong thing. @redrapids names it, and names the pact every team has to make before the next sprint spends the dividend.

The useful question is not where the code fits in the file. It is what kind of complexity the code carries. Rules belong in the core, the world belongs at the boundary, and the API keeps the two talking.

Most maintenance pain starts when one function reads input, makes the decision, prints the answer, and loops. Split the work into a functional core, a boundary, and a public API before the file grows around that mix.

Most developers waste time repeating project context in every AI chat. Treating your development process as versioned infrastructure changes that. We use meta-prompts to build the workflows that build our code.

What we are all facing, but few are talking about.
Let's chat.
Recursion in Elixir isn't a specialized technique for algorithms; it is the natural way to process lists. Once you understand how to carry state forward with an accumulator, you stop looking for loops and start thinking about the shape of your data.

My keynote at ElixirConf EU 2026, Precision in Type System Design, is up: https://t.co/jEgJjdPiGg
I talk about the trade-offs inherent to type system design, why there is no silver bullet, and then share overall updates on the typed Elixir effort.
Most developers treat AI configuration like sticky notes, but where that tooling lives determines if it can scale. Committing your AI instructions to the repository turns them into versioned, shared infrastructure.

If you treat Elixir lists like arrays, you will eventually find yourself fighting the language. Lists are linked structures where only the front is cheap to access, so stop reaching for indices and start matching on the head.

Stop retyping the same instructions to your AI. You can layer your prompts like code by using specialized sub-agents and custom slash commands to build a maintainable toolchain.

Control flow in Elixir is not just about branching logic. It is about deciding whether truth or pattern is the right mechanism for your data. When you learn to only catch what you can fix and let the rest crash, your code becomes more resilient.

Amazing speakers, incredible community, unforgettable day.
Thank you to everyone who made the first Code BEAM in Canada so special! 🇨🇦 🚀
See you next time!
If you repeat the same instructions in every AI prompt, you haven't built a workflow. You have just automated the typing. Treat your prompts like code and apply the DRY principle to keep your project consistent.
