Good old Udemy Elixr/Pheonix courses being irrelevant within 6 months but still trying to con people by saying they’re updated to current year.
Man don’t get me started. I went to college in the 10’s
I remember when I was trying to learn android development kid and android 5 was just released and all the tutorials that existed were basically immediately deprecated. God what a frustrating time.
We learned node in class and I learned angularjs in my free time because it was the new shiny thing lol. Went to pick it up 2 years later, come to find out EVERYTHING I learned was deprecated.
Google seem to be particularly bad at this. They did the same with Tensorflow. It was kind of the de facto deep learning framework until Google decided to deprecate everything. Everyone responded by switching to Torch instead.
Are you wanting a general overview of Elixir and Phoenix, or do you want to jump into the most modern part of Phoenix, LiveView? I’m an Elixir developer, so I could help direct you to materials and answer questions if you’d like.
This is what I love about Lemmy post jokes get actual advice :D I’m learning it to create a monolith webapp for work I’m a solo dev, and it ticked the most boxes.
I’ve gone through the basics of elixir and pattern matching is starting to click, about to start Elixir in action. But I imagine most of my actual dev focus will be in Liveview?
