Show HN: Caster – Screencasts Manager in Elixir, Phoenix and Vue

Re:Show HN: Caster – Screencasts Manager in Elixir, Phoenix ... by patrickdavey on Saturday March 25, 2017 @03:02AM (#13954444)

The first app I made with Rails, was a simple little video watching app. It allowed me to subscribe to RailsCasts, VimCasts etc. download them, and open up in vlc. Nothing special, but quite handy.

Anyway, I wanted an excuse to play with Elixir & Phoenix, and to play around with Vue, so I remade the app. It also allows you to pull in a youtube video / playlist.

All video's are downloaded locally, and then just shells out to vlc to actually play the videos.

Anyway, it's pretty basic, but I find it useful to have all my videos (for learning) in one place, maybe you'll find it handy.

PRs welcome for any RSS feeds :)

I really enjoyed it. It's quite a different way of doing things, but I just completely love the |> operator...

Also, the first time you completely replace a process and things just keep running perfectly - well, it's amazing!
