Validating Data in Elixir: Using Ecto and NimbleOptions

In the previous part of this series about validating data at the boundary of an Elixir application, we covered a few general programming tactics to try and reject invalid and unexpected data in our software. Continuing with that subject, we'll now explore how two libraries, namely Ecto and NimbleOptions, can further assist us. Let's get started!
