My Elixir livestreams on Twitch

I have being some Elixir open-source contributions and side projects. Oh, and I’m doing them on livestreams on my twitch channel, follow me there to get notified when I get live

The next one will be tomorrow (March 14th) at 17:30UTC, and I will be contributing to hex, the elixir package manager itself :slight_smile: See you there!

Nice one Kelvin :+1:

What kind of stuff have you live-streamed so far?

(I’ve moved your post to a dedicated thread btw… you can use it to post a note just before you go live if you like :nerd_face:)

Well, so far I contributed to holidefs (which is a lib we created internally for getting holiday dates), ex_doc, and even the Elixir core itself (added a new feature for paths autocompletion on iex)

I’m going to do a new one today, at 17:30UTC, doing this on hex.

Thanks everyone that watched the livestream! I do export it to youtube if you missed it and want to watch it later :wink:

I didn’t actually get to the side project, got stuck on the open-source contribution to hex, but was cool either way. See you!

PS.: there were some leftovers, I might actually do other quick lives during the weekend, just to finish it up.

Hey, I’m doing a quick livestream in around 15 min, to try to write tests for the contribution I did on the last one. If you’re free, join me there https://twitch.tv/kelvinstin

Here’s how that went:

hex #883 - mix deps.get sponsor tip

Didn’t get to actually fix the test that was failing, but actually discovered reason for the failing test was an error on my contribution, you can check the comment I sent on the PR after the livestream for more info

Heeeey! Me again, next livestream is going to be tomorrow, 17:30 UTC. The issue I’m handling is this one: Add the balance to the transactions page · Issue #1 · kelvinst/koins · GitHub. It’s a side project I started some livestreams ago, to toy around a bit with liveview, so if you’re interested on a practical use of liveview on a pretty “standard” application (it’s a personal finance manager), save the time :wink:

BTW, I’m now going to have Friday afternoons saved for that, so that’s guaranteed to be a time I’m going to be live every week (Fridays 17:30 UTC). I will still do bonus livestreams other days of the week though (even weekends sometimes), so keep tuned in.

PS.: follow me on twitch to get notifications when I get live.

Hey! I’m going to continue the work on both the issues of the last livestream this afternoon, as there were some failing tests and suggestions from the core team. Today, around 17UTC, should be a shorter one though :wink:

Hello everyone! Today at around 17:30UTC I’m doing another live. This time getting back to the koins project, adding more fields to the transaction table and explaining a bit more my plans for the future of that project. I’m doing the project using Phoenix LiveView, so if you are interested, hop on!
