quite new to elixir ( still haven't deployed anything to prod ).

interested to know, how the releases feture going to affect the way we deploy elixir/phonenix apps in production ?

You can simply "mix release" to build a release without using the Distillery library. There are some limitations, though, mentioned on the forums: https://elixirforum.com/t/elixir-v1-9-0-released/23366/4

Previously most people used distillery. Now they'll use Elixir releases. Because it is pretty much the same solution but now moved into the language tooling itself.
