In the past couple of days I debugged an issue affecting #rustler in #illumos ( #omnios ). Rustler is an ergonomic way to implement NIFs for #erlang / #elixir and they weren't loading at all. This led me to a fairly fun rabbithole.

I've written a first draft of the experience debugging in #illumos here: https://system-illumination.org/01-rustler.html

In the spirit of the recent #illumoscafe I also take a chance to start my #illumos site: https://system-illumination.org, where I'll be posting and documenting my learnings to shine a bit more light into this beautiful OS and tooling.

The above write-up is my first post on this new platform.

Hope you like it!
