ThinkingElixir 077 - EMPEX Mtn and Starting Knock with Chris Bell
In episode 77 of Thinking Elixir, we talk with Chris Bell, host of the Elixir Talk podcast and EMPEX conference organizer. Chris tells us about a new EMPEX chapter in the US Western states. EMPEX MTN will be in Salt Lake City, Utah. Chris started a new company called Knock using Elixir. We hear what problems it helps solve and more about his startup journey. A fun discussion with some tech insights, architecture overviews, and more on the roller coaster of starting your own thing!
