twitter like with elixir phoenix 1.6 and more, inspired by Chris McCord

TwitterLike

Inspired by video of Chris McCord showing how to efficiently build a twitter like with phoenix

Personnal inputs to the project:

• using phoenix 1.6 which means
  • no need to specify --live since liveview is set by default
  • esbuild instead of webpack as bundler
  • Sigil_L is replaced by Sigil_E
• add svg icons on views

To start your Phoenix server:

• Install dependencies with mix deps.get
• Create and migrate your database with mix ecto.setup
• Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phx.server or inside IEx with iex -S mix phx.server

Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.
