Architect Elixir applications using BEAM VM and OTP patterns for processes, GenServer, Registry, ETS, and production debugging.
Start by spinning up a minimal GenServer, wrap it in a supervision tree, and iteratively apply ETS and debugging patterns described above.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Structure Elixir supervision trees for dynamic workers using DynamicSupervisor to manage child specs, applying strategies like one_for_one or rest_for_one to achieve fault-tolerant service architectures with automatic process recovery.
Manage Elixir process state efficiently with ETS for in-memory storage and Registry for process naming and grouping, allowing scalable data management and concurrent access across GenServer instances without bottlenecking the VM.
Debug live Elixir production systems using Recon for memory and process inspection, :sys for tracing GenServer state, and built-in tracing to diagnose faults, isolate bottlenecks, and inspect process lifecycles without stopping the BEAM VM.
Use GenServer for long-lived stateful processes requiring OTP compliance and supervision tree integration, whereas Task or Agent suit transient or simple background operations. GenServer templates provide structured client/server code for fault-tolerant services.
Yes, you can build fault-tolerant services with scalable supervision by wrapping minimal GenServers in supervision trees and iteratively applying ETS, DynamicSupervisor, and debugging patterns to manage dynamic workers and isolate faults.
