Adding Ash to an existing Phoenix app

To add Ash to an existing application is easy, generally only involves updating your Ecto.Repo to use AshPostgres.Repo if you are using AshPostgres. Other than that, you can follow the guides as usual.

Creating a new Phoenix app

If you want to use AshPostgres, you have two options here:

1. create a phoenix app as normal, and when you set up AshPostgres, ignore the steps for creating the repo, and instead update it to use AshPostgres.Repo.
2. create the app with --no-ecto and follow the AshPostgres guide getting started guide fully.

Using Extensions

If you are using extensions like AshGraphql or AshJsonApi, you will want to follow their getting started guides separately.
