Ash is a declarative framework for building resource-oriented apps in Elixir. It emphasizes composability, DSL-driven definitions of resources/actions/relationships, and extensibility through plugins for API, database, and UI layers.

...It provides tools like code generators, LiveView integration, templating, routing, and a flexible plug pipeline. Phoenix runs on the Erlang VM with the ability to handle millions of WebSocket connections alongside Elixir's tooling for building robust systems. Know who is connected right now, across one or dozens of nodes, by using our built-in Presence. No dependency required.

Phoenix LiveView is an Elixir library that enables rich, real-time user experiences by using server-rendered HTML over WebSockets, providing seamless dynamic interactivity without needing front-end JavaScript frameworks. It integrates deeply with Phoenix and ships by default in new Phoenix applications. LiveView brings a unified experience to building web applications. You no longer have to split work between client and server, across different toolings, layers, and abstractions. Instead, LiveView enriches the server with a declarative and powerful model while keeping your code closer to your data (and ultimately your source of truth).

...Back-pressure, scheduling, and time synchronization are handled by the framework, enabling low-latency streaming and precise playback control without ad-hoc concurrency code. Developers compose pipelines from reusable building blocks and can dynamically add, remove, or switch elements while the system is running.

Surface is a component-based UI library for Phoenix LiveView that brings a declarative, template-driven approach to building interactive interfaces. Inspired by frameworks like React, it introduces components with typed properties, slots, and macros to simplify complex UIs. Developers can create reusable, encapsulated components that integrate seamlessly with LiveView’s server-rendered real-time model. Surface emphasizes readability, making templates feel closer to HTML while retaining Elixir’s functional power. ...

desktop enables building cross-platform desktop applications with Elixir by pairing a Phoenix/LiveView UI with a native webview shell. The approach keeps application logic on the BEAM—supervised, fault-tolerant, and hot-reload-friendly—while rendering an HTML/CSS/JS interface inside the system’s embedded browser engine. It offers conveniences for packaging and distribution on Windows, macOS, and Linux, including app metadata, icons, and startup integration.

Maru is a DSL for building HTTP/REST APIs in Elixir that emphasizes concise routing, parameter validation, and versioning. Inspired by Ruby’s Grape, it lets you describe endpoints declaratively—paths, verbs, and nested scopes—while composing reusable middleware via Plug. Strong parameter parsing and validators help keep controllers clean by moving input checking and coercion into the route layer.
