$ brew install postgresql # You'll need postgres to do this... you may also need to 'initdb' as well. Google it. | |
$ brew install elixir | |
$ mix local.hex # Answer y to any Qs | |
$ createuser -d postgres # create the default 'postgres' user that Chris McCord seems to like -- I don't create mine w/a pw... | |

$ mix phoenix.new <my_new_app_name> # Answer y to any Qs | |
# Follow directions after that; generally, you'll additionally need to enter: | |
$ cd <my_new_app_name> | |
$ mix ecto.create # Answer y to any Qs | |
$ mix phoenix.server # then visit: http://localhost:4000 -- then ctrl-C here *twice* to exit server | |
# voila! |
