There are a lot of good answers here already, but if you are interested, here are my favourite resources.

1- “Elixir in Action, Second Edition” - it’s an amazing book, teaches almost everything you have to know in Elixir
2- Elixir School
3- Elixir documentation
4- Programming Phoenix 1.4
5- Programming Phoenix LiveView

I mostly read books and articles to learn stuff, but you can also watch channels like Alchemist Camp on YouTube. :slightly_smiling_face:

Aside from all the great resources that AstonJ provided, I’d say start coding.

I’ve been coding for 20 years and I’ve never really learned any technology from reading beforehand. Just start coding, reading docs when you get stuck, and ask questions.
