7 new videos have been uploaded to Build It With Phoenix


Hey there!

Over the weekend, I uploaded 7 new videos for the Build It With Phoenix video course. The course now has 26 videos totaling 2 hours and 43 minutes of content (with more to come!). The new videos are

  • pointing out a deprecation in video 8 and how to overcome it (now meant to be watched before video 8 until I can re-record that video)
  • eliminating compiler warnings by cleaning up code
  • how to update dependencies
  • how to deal with deprecations due to updated dependencies
  • first steps with Ecto and loading chat messages from the database
  • persisting chat messages to the database
  • keeping our code's API clean by removing unused functions created by Phoenix's generator

We are getting close to the end of our coding journey together. I'll be recording more videos about Ecto and creating users (including an authentication system) in the coming weeks.

The new videos are in your library on Gumroad in the videos folder.

Happy learning and happy building!

Now's your chance to jump into the world of Elixir and Phoenix. Or, if you already have a pretty good grasp of the basics, to deepen your understanding of the...

Hi, friends! I feel like it has been a long winter and I am so glad that spring is finally here! Spring means warmer weather and new beginnings all around me. If a new beginning for you means learning something new (like the best web framework around?), I'd like to help out! If you use the code spring-for-30 during checkout for Build It With Phoenix (my video course teaching you the Elixir Phoenix web framework by building a chat application step by step), you will get 30% off! And because I...
