Thanks for your answer.

Is there anything you missed from Rails when you did your project based on Elixir/Phoenix?

What are you using on the front-end for both projects? Do you currently have a go-to front-end framework/library?

Email This looks great. What are your plans (if any) to monetize it?

One thing I missed was that the availability of packages for common things like oauth, payment gateway integration etc. In the Rails world we are spoilt for choice when it comes to gems and libraries.

But I think this will improve as the adoption of Elixir increases.

I don't have a go to frontend library. I have worked with React and Vue.J's before and if I have to choose one for another project, I'd probably go with Vue.

I am thinking of running Email This on a pay-what-you-want model, but I am not too sure about it though. First priority is to get people to use it and see if they find value in it.

Cool. Thanks again for your answers.

Best of luck with your projects!
