What does it take to put together a full-stack application with: a highly-scalable Elixir/OTP app, a super-charged Phoenix app, and a front-end using either Elm or Vue.js? And how would you design it in a pragmatic, straightforward way? Find out as we unpack an app together! Through a series of videos, we explore the design, architecture, and code of a full-featured Elixir + Phoenix + Elm / Vue application layer-by-layer, giving you a jump-start on building similar applications. A Real-Time, Multi-Player Bingo App The web application we explore lets you compete at buzzword bingo with multiple players in real...

Elixir and Phoenix are two of the hottest technologies of 2017. Functional Programming? You will learn it. Phoenix with OAuth? Its here. Postgres for data storage? Of course! Websockets too! This course will get you up and running with Elixir and Phoenix quickly, and teach you the core knowledge you need to deeply understand and build amazingly fast web applications. We’ll start by mastering the fundamentals of functional programming with Elixir, including functions, modules, and the fantastic ‘pipe’ operator. You’ll learn how FP differs from classic object oriented programming with a variety of different practical examples. Once you have...

I’m Josh Adams, the CTO of a mildly successful software consultancy that does cool stuff (isotope11.com). I’m an expert rubyist and have built systems that handle a billion plus worth of transactions per year (I sadly do not get a cut). I’ve architected large projects for customers ranging from state agencies to federal agencies, and built tons of startups’ apps. Having said that, I’m new to Erlang and newer to elixir (though I have built an actor model based financial trading platform in ruby with celluloid). The premise of the series is that I will learn elixir as a...

If you’re new to Elixir, you’ll get step-by-step guidance in an engaging format you won’t find anywhere else. If you have experience with Elixir, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of things you’ve been taking for granted and fill in any knowledge gaps. Go From a New Project to a Complete Elixir/OTP Application By developing a real app with real code, you’ll gain practical experience putting all the pieces together to craft applications the Elixir/OTP way. As we build an HTTP web server from scratch, we explore real-world scenarios for: ► pattern matching ► multi-clause functions ► recursion and lists...
