I recommend, Programming Elixir, followed by Elixir in Action, and Metaprogramming Elixir. The reason I put that last is because improper use of macros is said to make code harder to read, so advanced users should be the ones writing macros.
I would say finally Adopting Elixir, as it has been recommended for people who want to go on to deploy their work.

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 y…
