Elixir installation guide

Version numbers should be the ones you want. Here I do it with the last ones available at the moment of writing.

The simplest way to install elixir is using your package manager. Sadly, at the time of writing only Fedora shows the intention to keep its packages up to date. There you can simply sudo dnf install erlang elixir and you are good to go.

Anyway, if you intend to work with several versions of erlang or elixir at the same time, or you are tied to a specific version, you will need to compile it yourself. Then asdf is your best friend.

CSS Wishlist

Pseudo elements

• Allow them to be animated (already works in Firefox, soon also in WebKit).
• Allow more than 2 pseudo elements. Maybe we don't need it if Web Components will come.

Pseudo selectors

• Once an element has display: none, it shouldn’t affect first/last-child and other pseudo selectors. Or maybe it makes sense to add something like display: removed. It would behave like when that element is removed from the DOM aka make pseudo selectors ignore them. Use case: When you temporarly wanna remove items in a list, see demo, but keep the design intact.
