Roll Your Own Blog in Elixir and Phoenix

Does the world need another How to create a blog article?

Maybe not.

But then again, creating something out of nothing is what we love.

Follow the creation of my product’s blog using the same Elixir and Phoenix tooling, mixed with a big scoop of Markdown and good ole fashion Vim.

And, remember, it is a discussion, so feel free to join the conversation.

Still wish that one of these days, Phoenix or Ecto will work better with NoSQL databases.
