Jido Coding Harness is going very well
Server is a BEAM system running on Jido, Ash & Phoenix
Multi-player by default - two clients can connect to the same running session using the same tech as Google Docs
Clients will be built in any language: Elixir, TS, Go or Rust
A few more surprises to reveal soon …
Hey Elixir friends! :) The recording of the talk I gave at @ElixirConf US 2026 a few days ago is already live.
"Hologram: Building Local-First Apps in Pure Elixir"
New to Hologram? It's my framework for building full-stack web apps in pure Elixir, and the part that runs in the browser gets compiled to JavaScript.
The talk is a follow-up to my Malaga talk from April, which was mostly about the local-first problem and where sync engines stand on it today. Over the summer I built Hologram's local-first data layer, and this time I got to show it working. It isn't released yet, it's still on a branch.
First there's a demo, a trip planner in two browser windows. I switch the wifi off in one of them, add a couple of stops, switch it back on, and the other window catches up.
After that I go through how it works. The compiler already walks each page's call graph to decide what code to ship, so it also works out what that page needs to sync, with nothing for you to configure. And when two people edit the same row, the merge happens per column, no CRDTs involved.

Hey Elixir friends! :) Hologram v0.11 is out! First, Elixir regexes now run in the browser. They were server-only until now, and handing patterns to JavaScript's RegExp doesn't hold up, so v0.11 ships a PCRE2 parser, translator and interpreter of Hologram's own, and what comes back is what the BEAM would have given you. Second, client errors now read like server errors, same messages and same stacktraces. Plus dynamic component and element tags, attribute and prop spread, umbrella project support, and a fix for a DOM identity bug that could knock focus out of an input mid-typing.

Hi Elixir friends,
After 3 years building Hologram full-time (transpiles pure Elixir to JS, bringing it to the browser), I'm at a crossroads.
Working 60+ hr weeks balancing contracts & dev isn't sustainable.

This week, we announced ACP, an open-source protocol that standardizes communication between clients and coding agents, but we also released Zed v0.201! Let's dive into some of the highlights!

Finally got to watch Bryan Hunter's Waterpark talk, and just wow, it's such a great demonstration of how BEAM and Elixir can help you build systems with zero downtime, while significantly reducing the technical complexity of the solution. If you're curious about what makes Elixir special, this is the talk to see!

Had an incredible chat with @germsvel today about TDD, PhoenixTest, and building better software! His thoughts on mentoring juniors and embracing the "I don't know" mindset were gold.

"A calculator app? Anyone could make that."
Not true.
A calculator should show you the result of the mathematical expression you entered. That's much, much harder than it sounds.
What I'm about to tell you is the greatest calculator app development story ever told.
Was trying to explain this the other day. So, I made a video.
How to coordinate a message that runs through a GenServer’s handle_call and handle_info in a way that makes it seem synchronous from the caller’s perspective?
The secret: GenServer.reply/2
