Mebe

Mebe -- the Minimalistic Elixir Blog Engine -- is a simple blog engine written in Elixir, using the Phoenix Framework.

The engine consists of two parts:

MebeEngine, which handles parsing the data files into an ETS (Erlang Term Storage) in-memory database, and
MebeWeb, which uses the Phoenix Framework to serve the blog data to clients.

Installation for development

git clone
Copy config/*.exs.dist, removing the .dist ending and go through the configs.
npm install && gulp to build the frontend.
Put some content into the data path you specified, at least a menu file.
mix phoenix.server to run the development server.
