ThinkingElixir 119 - NPM CLI Maintainer Moves to Phoenix and Rust
Episode 119 of Thinking Elixir. Kat Marchán was the maintainer of NPM CLI for 5 years but now works at Microsoft on the VisualStudio product. Kat is passionate about Rust and uses Elixir and Phoenix to build a new Banchan Art site to serve artists. It helps connect artists with clients who want to commission custom artwork. The goal is to create a platform that does not exploit artists like many of the existing options. Amazingly, the Banchan Art Elixir project is OpenSource as well!
