Productive

Phoenix makes programmers productive. Right out of the box, Phoenix gives you everything you’d expect from a web framework:

  • A base architecture for your application
  • A database access and management library for connecting to databases
  • A routing layer for connecting web requests to your code
  • A templating language and helpers for you to write HTML
  • Flexible and performant JSON encoding and decoding for external APIs
  • Internationalization strategies for taking your application to the world
