If you have an MVP idea and wish it'd be developed in Elixir, feel free to contact me in any way, and we'll try to cooperate for this purpose.
The code is based on the free Elixir course(RU) produced by Ilya Krukowski: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWlFXymvoaJ_SWXOOm2JSqv86ZBkQ9-zo
Ilya's code and Github: https://github.com/bodrovis-learning/Elixir-YT-Series/tree/master
Content by lessons:
- Intro, data types and functional programming
- Pattern matching
- Modules, functions, r, margin conditions
- Recursion, list, head, tail, tail optimization
- Lambda, higher order functions, Matrix style output
- Branching, errors, data structures, kw lists
- Processes, monitors, spawn, spawn)link, practice
- Long running server processes
- Transfers, enum, stream, list inclusions
- OTP, GenServer, callbacks, mix, game of stones
- Protocols, polymorphism
- Metaprogramming, macroses, quote/unqoute, dinamic connection, AST
Why not a fork of the original code? Because the best way to follow the course is to experiment in CLI or IDE.
Try it by yourself: https://elixir-lang.org/install.html - install Elixir https://www.erlang.org/downloads - install Erlang/OTP (if it didn't come with the Elixir installation)
VSCode: install ElixirLS extension, create "filename.ex" or "filename.exs" file. To run the file from CLI: $ iex filename.ex
In CLI: $ iex (to quit, type either double Ctrl+C or System.halt)
The course is recorded in RU, but here everything is in EN. I add comments and some info from other learning sources (listed below).
WHY ELIXIR?
- most loved and highly paid prog lang
- mostly used by Senior devs with many years of experience (Stackoverflow research 2023).
- I believe in standing on giants' shoulders
- Elixir boosts developers' productivity
- saves time and money for a business
Some videos to answer the Why question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cnmyQJToKM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7y4Bs9Jbho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZvmYaFkNJI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNmM2PyHs2c&ab_channel=ElixirToronto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxYFOM3UJzo
This repo will cover basics of: PETAL stack (Phoenix, Elixir, TailwindCSS, Alpine.js, LiveView) - focused on BE And maybe: Ecto (for DBs) ExUnit (for testing) Ash Absinthe (for GraphQL) some libs for blockchain/AI/ML
Related pets will be listed below as github links. Note for comparisons: my first lang is Python.
