Using Panic's Nova.app for Elixir and Phoenix Development

Hello everyone,

a few weeks a go i started to learn Elixir and Phoenix Framework.

At that time i was also experimenting with Panic's Nova.app and thought, "well, let's give this a try, even this Techstack is sadly not handled as a first citizen".

I am still using The native Mac code editor
that's fast and amazing
but your dev life is better with some extensions.

You want to use at least those two Elixir extensions

The Nova Elixir extension

The Nova Elixir Language Server extension

You can install these extensions via the Extension menu, or via the Shortcut Shift+Apple+2 and use the Searchbar to find the extension.

One last tip!

If you work with .heex templates, change the syntax to HTML (HEEx) for proper syntax highlighting. And you also get TailwindCSS support as bonus, if you have the Extension installed.

Choose  raw `.heex` endraw  for syntax highlighting

Thanks for reading!
