I'm reworking my first rails project into Elixir-Phoenix & Vue.js app as a learning exercise. It's a video manager for learning resources (Vimcasts etc.). So it "knows" about parsing a number of feeds, and can download from youtube etc. (shell out to youtube-dl). Allows you to comment and export them all to a page (so you can keep track of what you've looked at and learned).

Quite enjoying reworking it, once it's in a usable state I'll be putting it up on Github and posting a link here. I'm sure there's _lots_ I'm getting wrong, but I'm definitely enjoying the process.

I really enjoy both Phoenix and Vue.js :)
Yes me too. The issue I see ahead is finding work with Phoenix.. I live in a town in New Zealand, and there's no elixir-Phoenix shop that I'm aware of, and I imagine getting remote work without a year or twos production experience won't be easy.

Still, it's fun and I'm looking forward to trying this year's adventofcode.com in elixir :)
