How to Rehome a So Below Project

We go deeper on the Sobelow library, a security-focused static analysis tool for Elixir and Phoenix apps. We talk with Griffin Byatt, the creator, and Holden Oullette, the new maintainer. We learn how and why the project was created, how it works, what it can and can't do, and how to use it in CI pipelines for continuous scanning. Sobelow is a cornerstone project in the community that checks a critical box for certification requirements which means we get to use Elixir when it might otherwise be a hard sell. Join us as we learn more about the project and the people behind it!
