@lance sure, I understand :wink: Maybe you could put some hints in a paragraph covering storage possibilities.
Anyhow, keep up the good work! thanks again! :book:

Nice book, already started the journey, its cool that you just start diving in into the business logic, but I really miss Tests. After the first Module (Coordinates) it would be better to just start with tests. It would actually save much more time, because you don’t need to go to the console and test it manually.

This book does not teach Phoenix, however. You probably should have some knowledge of it when starting reading it.

25% off, got lured in. But I bet it’s the best 16 dollars I’ve spent in a while :stuck_out_tongue:

Define beginners. This book won’t teach you “Elixir the language” nor “Phoenix the framework”. You must have some prior knowledge .
It creates a game as a means of explaining Agents, GenServers, Supervisors, Finite state machines and the structure of an Elixir application. It does a pretty good job at this. Unfortunately the Supervisors and FSM chapters are not ready yet. Then it combines the game, as a library, in a Phoenix app.

It goes step by step all the way.
