Returning to Elixir since 2017 - which resources do you recommend?

I haven’t touched Elixir/Phoenix since the end of 2017 and I’m coming back again to learn. I will remember many things but I would like some help on resources that can help me to get back into track.

I have been doing something similar myself, and wanted to chime in with: don’t be afraid to make use of Phoenix’s generators ‘mix phx.gen …’ to get you started. They are really helpful for seeing how you can/should structure your project, especially with all of the LiveView changes you might have missed out on. I have a throwaway project that I will generate things in to learn the structure, and then I force myself to tdd them in the main project so I actually learn.

  • The official guides
  • “Elixir in Action”
  • “Adopting Elixir”

Those are the ones that helped me the most.
