Hi @AstonJ Thank you.
The book is really an introduction to the language and the OTP.
I’m very happy to be one of the contest winner and I hope that this would help Elixir to gain traction and to increase its usage among more and more developers!

Ah nice! I had no idea @emadb was writing an Elixir book! Congrats Emanuele!

Seems like a nice length too - I think I might read it as a refresher as it’s been a while since I read Programming Elixir and Elixir in Action.

Let’s make this the official thread for the book and move it to our books section :023:

Awesome, congratulations @emadb, I’m sure this has introduced Elixir to some new people and clearly has been well received. I was completely unaware of this series all together so will have to check it out and possibly some of the other titles.
