+  blurb: "We can run an Elixir script with either the <code>elixir</code> or the <code>iex</code> command. Both will execute the code, but the second command opens an interactive IEx shell afterward. What if, we won't know until runtime whether we want a shell or not? How can we start an IEx session even when we use <code>elixir</code>, instead of <code>iex</code>, to run our script?"

Building on tools and knowledge we acquired previously, and utilizing an incremental and iterative development process, we go through the entire software life-cycle from creating the initial project files to deploying to production. We spare nothing, from spelling out every command, to ensuring application integrity with tests, and even updating the README file. Grab a drink and some snacks, and dive right in!"
