    Amazing book to start learning Phoenix
  

*by C***I on Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2016*

Amazing book to start learning Phoenix.This book tackles the basic fundamental stuffs of modern web development such as:1. MVC serve rendering style of web programming2. Database (Ecto)3. Authentication (over session and over token for websocket)4. Real time/websocket (Channel)6. OTP (breaking down your Phoenix app into small supervised apps to avoid monolithic design)7. How to test all of the 1-6 components aboveThis is a must have book for people interested in Phoenix and Elixir.There are a lot of magic in Phoenix, like Rails, but the concepts are easy to grasp once you repeat the book few times. Coming from NodeJS world where everyone does their own thing, and there's no convention. I'd say Phoenix embraces a nice balance, having solved many things under the hood by using macros, provide great developer experience and convention, but at the same time not overly complicated to understand.Not too mention that it solves your scalability in real time applications that are self-healing, fault tolerance, great tooling because Elixir itself is super awesome! This framework is truly an amazing framework, for those that seeks to replace Rails to embrace the new web, where everything is massively connected real-time.Amazing work Chris McCord!!

    Great material, terrible code formatting on the Kindle.  Still worth buying and incredible valuable for learning Phoenix.
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2017*

The content and material is excellent.  This is enough to get you started on most any web application you would want to build with Phoenix and doesn't assume much knowledge of Elixir (although you would still need to pick up another book or tutorial after this one to become truly productive in Elixir before really being fully productive in Phoenix).  It certainly is possible to get through this book with only a vague introductory knowledge of the Elixir language if you are already familiar with Ruby and piping in some functional language (including Bash, although knowing a Lisp or an ML derivative wouldn't hurt).My only real complaint about the book is that, in the Kindle edition, the code is not formatted and the syntax highlighting is poor.  But if you are on anything other than an actual e-reader, you can just click on the web links next to each code block and be taken straight to the online source file they provide.  This was the one saving grace for me for larger sections of code since the indentation was not kept in the Kindle format.

    Methodical, clear, concise
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2017*

Topic coverage is methodical and the pacing is perfect for people who worked in other server side frameworks. Never felt lost even when I made typo mistakes.This not a cookbook; It's an in-depth introduction to the architecture and the reasoning behind its tradeoffs presented thoroughly with a single application thats built upon through the whole book. The tech stack is sophisticated but this book will get you far on the path to competence.
