“Great book in a good price. Delivered to Brazil without any problems.”
May 19, 2024 by Jonathan R. (California, US)
“This is a great book on Elixir. Prior to reading this book, I had no experience using Elixir and after reading the book I was able to confidently create apps and maintain existing ones with the skills learned. Amazing experience.”
Company Choice
They are my go to option. Manning has pretty much everything I need to learn a subject.
Product Choice
I wanted to learn more about Elixir as we are talking about possibly making a switch from .NET.
Still the a required part of an Elixir dev's education
