Comment on Ask HN: real-world examples of HTTP servers in Elixir?

Comments

It’s not an existing site, but any of the ‘make a blog in 15 min’ tutorials [1] will get you to working code examples quickly. The Elixir build utility `mix` has great tools for creating new projects and the example project will scale easily into what you want to try. Also, GenServer’s are a good way to retrieve _and_ cache the data from the other http server, following the KV supervisor tutorial would be a good starting point.
