Yusssssssss. I can’t express how happy I am that you guys did an Elixir topic. I’ve been working my way through the Dave Thomas book, and I have not been this excited about a language for a long time.

Happy to see the Elixir related iteration. Great first video! Been waiting for months.

Hope to see more Elixir and Phoenix iterations/trails. Any plans to start Elixir/Phoenix related frameworks like Ecto? Also is there a plan for ‘Elm’?

Nice intro, though it’d be awesome if we got a more in-depth exploration of the language basics and syntax etc.
Maybe there could be an Elixir/Phoenix track as others mentioned, with the added bonus of serving as an entry-level functional programming course?
