My Elixir/Phoenix project Magnetissimo. When KickassTorrents died, I thought I should just build my own crawler and be done with it.

Elixir's OTP was a fantastic fit, I scrape stuff really quickly with minimal orchestration code. There are bugs here and there, and I haven't had time to circle back and patch a lot of the issues I noticed, but it "works".

I'm proud of it because it broke the 200 star barrier on my Github profile. With Elixir to boot! I love this language.
