Native Implemented Functions (NIFs) let you significantly speed up code or make system calls that would otherwise be unavailable. However, they come with a significant cost in that when they go wrong, they can take down the entire Erlang VM. This is particularly challenging when using NIFs with Nerves when crashes happen at boot time.

Many home and office items use radio frequencies to communicate control. So naturally, lets take that over to control them from a single Nerves device with one wire on a GPIO pin.

Reading datasheets for fun and profit, or how I learned to stop worrying and convert analog signals into elixir terms.

Use Nerves and a little reverse engineering to control a motorized desk. Then intercept current height messages from the controller and publish to a Phoenix site for real-time desk height measurements…because #yolo.
