Hello,

I've started learning Elixir from Programming Elixir 1.6 and I find Elixir a fascinating language. I know it's very late for GSOC but is it possible to contribute to these projects even as a non-GSOC student, just for learning purpose.

Hi Germa, it is not too late for GSoC, there are still two days left. :) However, if you want to contribute to those projects, then you can also do so outside of the scope of GSoC. Both Elixir and Hex projects have they own issues tracker with features to be implemented and bugs to be tackled.

Have a great week!

Haha, Thanks for the tip! But is it even possible for a beginner to contribute, I've almost 0 knowledge in Erlang ecosystem. I've some good knowledge in JS ecosystem even about the GraohQL and Apollo. Once I read about Discord and Whatsapp, how they are able to manage millions of concurrent connections and I stumbled upon Elixir and since that time I always wanted to learn more about Elixir. By the way, can you send me the link for Hex and Elixir issue trackers? That'll help me a lot.

Hi, Germa! Both projects track issues on their GitHub repositories.  Here are the links:


If you are interested in learning the language, a good start is the Elixir School website.
I also suggest you to take a look at the Elixir Forum. There are several interesting discussions there.

Best,
Tallys
