Phoenix Framework — Productive Web Framework for Elixir

Phoenix is a web framework for Elixir that provides peace of mind from prototype to production. Channels for real-time communication, LiveView for server-rendered reactive UI, and the fault-tolerance of the BEAM VM. Built for apps that need to scale.

Introduction

Phoenix is the premier web framework for Elixir, created by Chris McCord. It provides peace of mind from prototype to production: Channels for real-time communication, LiveView for server-rendered reactive UIs (no JavaScript needed), and the fault-tolerance of the BEAM virtual machine. Phoenix consistently handles millions of concurrent WebSocket connections per server.

What Phoenix Does

  • MVC — controllers, views, templates
  • Channels — real-time WebSocket communication
  • LiveView — server-rendered reactive UI (no JS framework needed)
  • Ecto — database query DSL and migrations
  • PubSub — distributed pub/sub
  • Presence — track connected users
  • Telemetry — instrumentation hooks
  • mix phx.gen — generators for context, schema, HTML, JSON

FAQ

Q: Can LiveView replace React? A: For medium-to-high interactivity apps, yes. LiveView pushes HTML diffs over WebSocket to the browser with sub-50ms latency — the feel is great. For very complex front-end interactions, React/Vue + Phoenix API is still recommended.
