I have a sharing session about the Elixir ecosystem for Erlang developers. I feel that people are still confused about the differences between Erlang and Elixir, and what benefits they can get by moving to Elixir.
So, I created an open-source book to help people understand the differences more clearly and guide them into the Elixir ecosystem.
The book is targeted at people who have knowledge of Erlang/OTP and is divided into six parts:
- Part I – Foundations: What Transfers
- Part II – Language Power-ups: What Elixir Adds
- Part III – The Ecosystem Map
- Part IV – AI on the BEAM
- Part V – Practice & Direction
- Part VI – Under the Hood: Deep Dives
Where Next?

Thank you very much! It also helps me learn Elixir even if I don’t have knowledge about Erlang.

First, it’s nice to hear from an Elixir developer from Vietnam!
And most importantly, the guide looks good! I’m gonna give it a go and let you know in a few days or weeks how it worked out!
