As game of digital transformation is on, lots of lot services and things are getting online, Netizen will also rise and to handle such huge traffic, concurrency of code is indispensable. Parallelism, concurrency and functional are the brass tack for modern application. Elixir is loaded with all the features which is required for modern app development.

This course is in serious need of editing. There is a lot of time spent on logistics of changing directories and such, as well as typos the instructor makes and then goes back and corrects. There are even a few times the instructor starts to write code examples then can’t seem to figure out what he was doing, so he just deletes the example and does something completely different. That should all be edited out. Additionally the instructor spends a great deal of time on very simple concepts and then glosses over more complicated concepts. Also at times it just feels like the instructor is reading the documentation, which is fine, but then does not anything to it. Finally many of the examples are extremely basic and don’t provide anything useful for explaining the concept being discussed. There is little here that would take one from zero to hero, you are better off just reading the docs.
