   I'm a big fan of both the Manning and Pragprog books. Even if you've worked at it a bit already, you'll probably get something out of doing the first dozen or so challenges on my channel as well: https://youtu.be&#

    I'll start! My project is called Alchemist Camp ( https://alchemist.camp ). I believe I've made more free screencasts for learning the Elixir language than anyone else online, but I also put some behind a paywall. It&#x
