A Deep Dive into Nova – A Web Framework for Erlang on Beam

3•taure•14h ago
I’ve put together a blog focused on Nova, a web framework built on Erlang and the BEAM VM.

The goal was to create something practical and easy to follow — covering setup, routing, views, plugins, authentication, APIs, and WebSockets — with a focus on how Nova fits into the broader BEAM ecosystem.

Blog: https://taure.github.io/novablog/

Nova repo: https://github.com/novaframework/nova

If you're interested in building fault-tolerant web apps on BEAM (and not just using Phoenix/Elixir), you might find it useful.

Feedback, corrections, and suggestions are welcome.
