slim-overflow is a web application which implements much (but not all) of the core functionality of Stack Overflow. It is written in Elixir and built on the Phoenix Framework.
Some of the features it supports:
Install Elixir here and Phoenix, Node.js, and PostgreSQL here.
Install dependencies with mix deps.get
.
Create and migrate the Postgres database with mix ecto.create && mix ecto.migrate
.
Install Node.js dependencies with cd assets && npm install
Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phx.server
Now visit localhost:4000
and have at it!
