One of the authors currently focuses on some family health issues and will finish the work once these are overcome.
So there is no definitive timescale AFAIK

Apologies for the delay with the Elixir Patterns book. My wife and our newborn both fell very ill back in February and I had to put a pause on pretty much everything from the book, open source, blogging, podcasting and everything inbetween in order to take care of the family. My wife was fairly close to death’s door, but thank God she has recovered and is improving day by day. Still a long way to go but we’re getting there.
I am hoping that I will be back to writing the book in a few weeks. And after that hopefully back to doing some open source work. It’s been a long road for the family and I appreciate all the support from the Elixir community 
.

I’m very sorry to hear that. I’m glad to hear they are getting better and my thoughts are with you. I do hope you did not think my query was at all ‘pushy’ - this was not my intention at all. Your priority has got to be your family and I am grateful for authors like you in the Elixir community willing to spend the time to produce the brilliant resources that you do. All the best to you for the future.

@hugobarauna and I have some fantastic news…the Elixir Patterns books is complete and in release candidate!!
The eighth and final chapter dives into:
- Building a Scalable Actor Model with Caching Support: Learn how to architect a high-performance, fault-tolerant system using GenServers, ETS, and DynamicSupervisor.
- Implementing a Fault-Tolerant ETS Cache: Discover techniques to make your ETS caches resilient to failures, ensuring that your system can recover and maintain state even after unexpected process crashes.
- Adapter Pattern in Elixir: Understand how to use Elixir’s behaviours to implement the adapter pattern, allowing you to easily swap out dependencies at run-time or compile-time.
Here is a sneak peak at the final boss supervision tree 
This is the first release candidate of Elixir Patterns which means that the book’s content is complete, but we expect minor adjustments and potential errata. If you haven’t so already, be sure to pick up your copy at: https://elixirpatterns.dev/

Just bought the book. I really liked the way content was outlined. Looking forward to reading this. Skimmed the first two chapters quickly and I like what I see
Thank you for writing this.
Update: Just looked at some of the LiveBooks. I can see myself browsing the livebook after finishing a section, resulting in a pretty unique experience for a book. I hope more books follow this pattern.

Thank you for the kind words and we really appreciate the support!!
I’m happy to hear that you like the unique experience that the book + Livebooks offer. That was very much our intention when we kicked off this project and it’s nice to know that we placed the correct bet 
.
The Livebooks also make it super convenient for copying and pasting code into your own projects (very much inspired by the TailwindUI experience). Just the other day I needed the skeleton for a cron job GenServer and I copy and pasted right from the Elixir Patterns Livebook .

@hugobarauna and I are in the process of collecting feedback during the Release Candidate phase and will be updating the content accordingly over the next few weeks.
If you purchased the book we’ll be sure to email you the final copy once it is released!
