Making Elixir Honk: Implementing An Elixir Audio Library In Zig

Chris has been writing software professionally for over a decade, and Elixir for 7 years. He enjoys tinkering with graphics and game code, building things, and cooking. He and his partner live in Houston with their four wonderful dogs.

This talk will go through the design space, talk about architecture, and finally step through the implementation of a basic sound library for Elixir using Zig and Zigler.
