Elixir is the modern, powerful programming language designed for massive scale and reliability, perfectly suited for today’s concurrent web applications. Built on the proven Erlang virtual machine (BEAM), Elixir empowers developers to build fast, fault-tolerant systems that simply do not crash. This book provides a clear, sequential path for beginners to master the functional programming mindset, preparing you to leverage these cutting-edge tools in a professional environment.

This book is a hands-on guide to building reliable, scalable software with Elixir and Phoenix. You will develop a solid functional mindset before moving to the BEAM’s powerful concurrency model with lightweight processes and OTP. You will learn to design resilient services with GenServers and supervision trees, test confidently with ExUnit, and automate everyday tasks with Mix. You will also build and deploy web services using the Phoenix Framework and Ecto database interaction. Also, by using practical examples and hands-on exercises, readers will learn Elixir's syntax and basic data types.
