182: Year End Review

31 minutes

As we close another year packed with developments in the Elixir ecosystem, we're rolling out the red carpet for a "Year End Review" episode! Before we do that, we cover the most recent news events like the release of Supabase's Supavisor, a connection pooler, crafted with a helping hand from Dashbit. We shed light on the partnership between Supabase and Fly.io introducing a managed Postgres option. Then, for front-end enthusiasts, we discuss the released beta of LiveView Native and more! And, if that's not enough, we've got loads to unwrap from highlights of the past year's achievements!
