Technical requirements

This chapter, just like the previous one, is loaded with code snippets. It is recommended that readers follow along with the coding. We will still use Elixir 1.12.x and Erlang 23.2.x, so ensure those are installed on your computer.

I will make the same assumption that you’ve read through the previous chapters, coding along whenever we reach a snippet. For this chapter, it is particularly important that you’ve read the previous chapter and understood how we created our own controller. We will be using the code from Chapter 4 to update the Goldcrest.Controller module.

Though not necessary, any experience writing Phoenix and Rails controllers would help you better understand this chapter’s contents.
