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, both in the apps/ directory:

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

Installation for development

  • git clone
  • Copy *.exs.dist, removing the .dist ending and go through the configs.
  • npm install && bower install && gulp to build the frontend.
  • mix phoenix.server to run the development server.
