Ask HN: Elixir/Erlang Resources?
What materials and resources can you recommend for learning Elixir/Erlang?
Elixir seems to be hyped in my community right now because it seems like you can write parallel/concurrent programs quickly and easily. So I wanted to give it a try.
So far I use Python, C and Golang for my applications. So my knowledge of functional languages is limited.
Thanks https://pragmaticstudio.com has some of the best courses on Elixir, OTP, Phoenix, and LiveView. I'm not affiliated with them in any way. I've just used their courses to get software engineers without any previous Elixir experience successfully trained in the language. and are also good resources. The language homepage has a solid "Getting Started" section that will walk you through the basics: https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/introduction.html There are also interactive tutorials that ship with Livebook, including visualizations of message-passing: After that, the Pragprogs have a solid line of books if you want to go deeper.
