Today, the Elixir Wizards wrap up Season 14 “Enter the Elixirverse.” Dan, Charles, and Sundi look back at some common themes: Elixir plays well with others, bridges easily to access languages and tools, and remains a powerful technology for data flow, concurrency, and developer experience. We revisit the popular topics of the year, from types and tooling to AI orchestration and reproducible dev environments, and share what we’re excited to explore next.
We also invite your questions and takeaways to help shape future seasons and conference conversations. Season 14 doubles as a handy primer for anyone curious about how Elixir integrates across the stack.
Key topics discussed in this episode:
- Lessons from a season of interoperability
- Set-theoretic types and what new compiler warnings unlock
- AI in practice: LLM orchestration, fallbacks, and real-world use
- SDUI and GraphQL patterns for shipping UI across web/iOS/Android
- Dataframes in Elixir with Explorer for analytics workflows
- Python interoperability (ErlPort, PythonX) and when to reach for it
- Reproducible dev environments with Nix and friends
- Performance paths: Rustler and Zig for native extensions
- Bluetooth & Nerves: Blue Heron and hardware integrations
- DevEx upgrades: LiveView, build pipelines, and standard project setup
- Observability and ops: Prometheus/Grafana and sensible deployments
- Community feedback, conferences, and what’s on deck for next season ### Links mentioned in this episode:
