I would love to see something covering Elixir, Ecto, Ash, Phoenix and LiveView that shows how to use them all together. Not the basics (they are all aready covered several times), but some advanced topics that matter in most typical web apps. A collection of recipes. All starting with the tests.

Thanks so much for all the responses! It seems like there’s a desire for more advanced topics (which makes sense), and there’s a feeling that beginner topics are covered.
I like the idea of an OTP course. It’s something I’m mulling a little bit more. I’m surprised that Refactoring also scored high on the list (though happy too. Refactoring is near and dear to my heart).
Some of the comments elaborated on the idea of OTP. For example:
Anybody else have thoughts on OTP? Are there resources out there that you like on OTP? Or any you don’t like because there’s something missing?

That’s interesting. Unfortunately, I don’t think that’s in my wheelhouse. I wonder if too few people have that issue or by the time you have that issue, you solve it in a bespoke way without sharing blog posts, etc.

Love the list! Thanks for sharing. I like the OTP idea, and it lines up with the poll results as something that people want.
How much OTP do you know? Any resources you’ve searched that you liked/disliked? What would a course teach you?

That is a good list! I completely agree that advanced LiveView uses need some resources. I wonder if a good course could be built around that. It’s always hard to design a situation in a course that represents the real-world well. I’ll have to think about this a bit more. But thanks for the info!
Have you found resources (blog posts, etc.) for some of those issues in the list?Anything you like/dislike?

Thanks! Glad the DDD talk landed well. 
Curious, you said:
At the moment I’d be interested in something a bit more intermediate to advanced regarding Phoenix and OTP
What would an intermediate/advanced course on OTP teach you?
You mentioned,
Background jobs, long-running multi-step workflows similar to https://temporal.io/ . Oban looks like an excellent solution and one I’ll probably try in the future, but I would like to learn more about the Elixir/OTP primitives that would enable building this kind of thing.
Is that what you mean? OTP in relation to data processing pipelines? One can build on the other, but I think those can be two different courses.

Elixir and Rust are always an interesting combination. I’ve worked with Rustler before but only in a very limited capacity (and it was a while ago). I think there could be something there for a course, though I’m not sure how popular it would be. I wonder if there’s a limited number of people who need/want to understand, even if many benefit from the libraries using it.

Thanks for the suggestion! Seems like there’s a couple of posts with interest in Ash:
I haven’t worked with Ash yet, but it’s definitely interesting. I chatted with a few people about it during ElixirConf, and I think there could be something there.

People definitely talk about it around here, so it is likely no one written a blog post on it (which is totally cool). It’s really easy to get setup locally as there are plenty of iex --sname tutorials out there. No prob if it’s out of your wheelehouse, though. And thanks for all the learning material!
