Elixir/Phoenix Journey - Share Your Wisdom!
Hello!
I'm venturing into the world of Elixir and Phoenix (coming from a Next.js background), and it's both exciting and a little daunting. The learning curve feels pretty steep! I'm curious to hear from those of you with Elixir/Phoenix experience, especially anyone who's made a similar transition from Next: what were your biggest "aha!" moments, what resources really helped you level up, and what was the trickiest thing to wrap your head around at first? I'm open to any and all suggestions – books, videos, hidden gem websites, anything! Thanks!

Http cookies in next
Hi everyone!
I'm trying to create a server-side component in Next.js that makes an API request and passes the data to child components. However, I'm running into an issue:
The endpoint I'm making the request to is protected and requires authentication via HTTP-only cookies. When I make the request server-side, I get a 422 status code with an error saying there's no cookie.
But when I add "use client" at the top of my file and run the request on the client side, it works, and I get the data successfully.
I really want to understand these concepts. How can I correctly send HTTP-only cookies in a server-side component to authenticate my request? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance! 😊
