A curated catalog of Elixir-specific code smells documenting sub-optimal code patterns unique to the Elixir language, organized into design-related and low-level concern categories. It serves as an educational reference with runnable Livebook examples for improving code quality in Elixir projects.

Use cases

• identify code smells in my elixir codebase
• learn common elixir anti-patterns
• refactor genserver-heavy elixir code
• study elixir software quality patterns
• find examples of bad elixir design
• teach code review guidelines for elixir

When to choose

• you write or review Elixir code and want language-specific quality guidance
• you are learning Elixir idioms and common pitfalls
• you need a reference for code review or refactoring discussions in Elixir teams

When to avoid

• you need automated linting or static analysis rather than a manual reference catalog
• you work in a language other than Elixir
• you need general-purpose code smell guidance not tied to Elixir
