#hex The 'data_source' Hex Package

Posted on Sep 21, 2025

In the Elixir ecosystem, managing data access is a crucial part of building robust applications. The data_source hex package aims to simplify this by providing a unified interface for interacting with various data sources.

While Elixir has excellent tools like Ecto for database access, data_source can be useful in scenarios where you need to fetch data from different types of sources, not just databases. It provides a consistent API, making your code cleaner and easier to maintain.

The package is designed to be extensible, allowing you to create your own data source implementations for specific needs. This makes it a flexible solution for a wide range of use cases.
