difference between elixir phoenix and laravel elixir

I have used the Laravel PHP Framework for web development, and I now want to learn about elixir and to use this as a REST API service.

My question is: what is the difference between elixir phoenix and laravel elixir?

Solution

  • Phoenix is a web framework written in the Elixir programming language. It has nothing to do with laravel or its elixir.

    Laravel's elixir is a node.js app that is built on top of gulp to provide an easy way to manage your client-side assets (minification/concatentation/transformation/versioning etc.)

    The two have absolutely nothing in common.
