I’m SO excited - can’t wait!!!

Thanks; I was puzzled for a bit when I couldn’t find it on the store front.

I emailed support and “Pat the Gerbil” responded this morning that it will be released in Beta this week.

Any rumours about the author?

This Stephen Bussey @sb8244?

Hi all, it is my book!
I haven’t discussed it anywhere yet because it hasn’t officially gone into beta, but it’s very soon. I’m not sure I can give out a timeline just in case it needs to be adjusted in any way. (Hopefully it won’t be!)
edit: I’ll also be at ElixirConf this week. My colleague, Grant, and I are leading a training on Tuesday about real-time applications in Elixir. Feel free to chat about the book or anything else if you see me.

Congrats Stephen! I can’t wait
I’m not sure if it’ll be feasible for a book like this, but could you try and make it e-reader friendly if at all possible please? (More details in my Programming Ecto (Pragprog) - #40 by AstonJ review.)
Can you also share some brief details about the book and what it might cover? Personally I’d love to see how to use LiveView for things like site-wide notifications and it would be great if you cover such a topic
I’m guessing you already have, but it may also be worth looking through the liveview tag to see what people have been trying to do with it (which might give you some ideas for the book).
Good luck and please keep us updated

Thanks for that link. I thought maybe it was related to a technical aspect of e-readers, but I see it’s about the flow of the book. I think it should have a similar flow, because Pragmatic really spends a lot of time on making sure that the particular type of flow you mentioned is used in their books (at least the Elixir ones). My editor has been great on that front. If you do find anything that’s not friendly, I’d definitely look at correcting during the beta period.
The book has 3 parts that focus on different aspects of real-time systems and Phoenix Channels. Deeper foundation dive into WebSockets, all about Phoenix Channels, and moving into concepts like building a data pipeline with GenStage (one of my favorite parts). Future chapters get into turning all of that foundational knowledge into a real application.
The great thing about LiveView is that once you understand the foundations of Channels, PubSub, and general real-time concepts, it becomes very easy to understand LiveView. I’m hoping that these foundations will get developers going in the best way possible.

@sb8244 really look forward to the book. Content request: plz cover how to hot-upgrade socket connections and LiveViews, so I don’t bring down long-lived subscriptions during updates.
