Phoenix LiveView [0] is really exciting to try out in Elixir. I'd recommend building an auto updating dashboard.

I had a micro controller that had various sensors on it that I connected to over a serial port using circuits_uart[1]. I then read the sensor values and displayed them on a LiveView dashboard. Totally pointless but super fun :)

Sidenote. If anyone has any Elixir freelancing work I can do send me an email. Email in my HN bio.

Thanks fellow person. The idea of having a project-based course like Alchemist is just was I was looking for.
