Episode 208 of Thinking Elixir. This week’s show features the latest releases Elixir 1.17.0 and 1.17.1, bringing improved type inference and a new Duration data type. We’ll also dive into Phoenix Playground’s streamlined approach to single-file applications, José Valim shares another Elixir academic research project taking shape on set-theoretic types for behaviors, and updates from the Igniter project on enhancing code generation and project patching. With a look at how Phoenix and Inertia.js are joining forces and the latest on Nx Scholar’s new version for machine learning, this episode is packed with cutting-edge developments in the Elixir community, and more!
