In this part, we are going to move further from our previous post and build our own blockchain and now we are going to validate our chain if it is valid and whatever we are doing is right & we are going into the right path. So there are two very basic fundamental properties of […]

So we are building a blockchain in Elixir, in case you have jumped here directly please make sure you have read the part-1. I did some refactoring before we proceed to write code for the modules to make a bit cleaner. So you can make changes accordingly. In Part-1 we created a block now let’s

Blockchain is a technology that allows data to be stored and exchanged on a peer-to-peer (P2P) basis. Structurally, blockchain data can be consulted, shared, and secured thanks to consensus-based algorithms. It is used in a decentralized manner and removes the need for intermediaries, or “trusted third parties” In simple words, Blockchain is a database. What

Discover how functional programming paradigms eliminate stack overflow fears and create more elegant, efficient code with the help of Pattern Matching The Stack Overflow Nightmare Every developer has been there. You’re working on a recursive algorithm, feeling confident about your elegant solution, when suddenly — STACK OVERFLOW. Your beautiful recursive function just brought your application

Today we are going to talk about a very common scenario which we face when designing any application i.e. Many-Many relationship between the tables. As I have seen it’s a very common issue arise working with Ecto, new users of elixir face a bit of difficulty while working with it. So here is how to

Parsing is everywhere in software development — from configuration files to query languages, from log analysis to domain-specific languages. Yet many developers shy away from building custom parsers, thinking they’re complex and difficult to maintain. Enter NimbleParsec, an Elixir library that makes parser construction not just approachable, but genuinely enjoyable. What Makes NimbleParsec Special? NimbleParsec

The web development landscape has changed dramatically since Ruby on Rails revolutionized it in 2004. What once felt like magic now shows its age in a world demanding real-time interactions, massive concurrency, and bulletproof reliability. It’s time to have an honest conversation about why Rails, despite its historical significance, is becoming a liability for serious

Kernel Polling in the BEAM VM (Erlang/Elixir) What is Kernel Polling? Kernel polling is a technique where the operating system provides a way for applications to efficiently monitor many I/O resources (like sockets or files) at once. Instead of the application repeatedly checking each resource (polling), the OS notifies the application when any resource is

A developer’s journey from “this should be easy” to enterprise-grade performance The Spark That Started Everything It all began when I published my previous blog post: “The Ultimate WebSocket Battle: Elixir vs Go Performance Showdown.” I had achieved what I thought were impressive results — around 16,000 concurrent connections on both Elixir and Go —
Most performance comparisons are either unfair or unrealistic. We’ve all seen the “nuclear stress tests” that push systems to the brink, yielding little insight into real-world performance. This isn’t one of those. I wanted to find out, under a fair and realistic workload, which platform truly shines for high-concurrency WebSocket applications: Elixir’s elegant, actor-based concurrency
