You’re a programmer, so you don’t need spoon feeding with the conventional drivel about “this is an integer.” No. You need to know what’s different, and you want to know quickly.

But you want more. True mastery of Elixir comes from understanding the underlying idioms: functional programming, transformations, concurrency, and application structure. You need to know the tools, such as IEx and mix. And you need to understand the frameworks, such as OTP and Phoenix. This course will get you started down this road (and your experience will take you the rest of the way),

The course has videos to show you stuff, text to give you facts, quizzes to help you remember, and exercises to let you practice.

More and more developers are switching to Elixir. Take this course and join them.

Does this use Phoenix 1.3?

Yes Phoenix 1.3 (and Elixir 1.5, code backwards compatible with Elixir 1.4.2).

AstonJ OP

Thanks for confirming - I just signed up to the free trial to check but couldn’t see whether it was or not :lol:

Is this a video course or text course? Looking at the content listing every chapter says ‘text’ next to it - is there an accompanying video with each chapter?

Click on start free trial to see the public videos. It looks very well done!

AstonJ OP

I just bought it :lol:

Looks like there’re quite a few videos - I’d say most pages have a video :023:

I think I am going to go through this course after finishing Programming Elixir (hopefully Programming Phoenix will be updated by the time I am done :003:)

me too. Look forward to getting time to practice :slight_smile:

This course really makes the reader “think in Elixir”!

Probably not for Elixir experts (at least so far), but beginners and intermediates will certainly benefit from it.

P.S. Some introduction into the so discussed Phoenix “context”, will be great, as well as some example of showing how to use phx.gen.json in practice. But maybe, it is material for another course.

You should definitely ping @pragdave with that feedback - he’s usually very open to ideas. I agree that some info about Contexts would be really handy (and make the course even more appealing for people - as there’s not much material on Contexts yet) :slight_smile:

+1 for Contexts. I think it would be a great addition.

I really need to stress (again) how great this course is.

It takes the student hand-by-hand across the development of a game and it introduces concepts such as Agent, GenServer, etc. so smoothly.

I have to admit that it is the first time I realised what is going on with the GenServer and the state of an Application. So well presented!

Simply, Excellent Job!!!
