Engineering deep-dives from the SlashFeed team — Elixir, Phoenix, and how the product is built.
How SlashFeed models trigger to condition to action automations as node and edge rows, evaluates them against feed events, and lets users build them on a drag-and-drop SVG canvas rendered entirely in LiveView.
How SlashFeed ships its REST API reference as a themed, in-app LiveView instead of a static Markdown file, and how it hands off to a downloadable Hoppscotch collection for real request execution.
How I added Gmail-style j/k/m/o keyboard navigation to SlashFeed's entry list using a single LiveView hook — covering the input guard, LiveView stream DOM IDs, the updated() lifecycle gotcha, and pushEvent as the server bridge.
How we built an admin image workbench to test OG-image transforms before they land in feed recommendations.
How I built a four-layer onboarding system for SlashFeed using Driver.js, a single JSONB column, and an attach_hook trick that eliminated 34 boilerplate edits across every authenticated LiveView.
What accessibility actually means in 2026, and how I built a site-wide accessibility settings widget for SlashFeed — bottom-left FAB, slide-up panel, CSS-driven overrides, localStorage persistence, zero server round-trips, and an Alt+A keyboard escape hatch.
