Hey friends!
I've been blown away by the interest in my upcoming Build It With Phoenix video course. Your enthusiasm for the course has been amazing and I'm excited to share updates with you as I work on completing it.
You may have seen the announcements that Phoenix 1.7 has officially been released. While I've recorded a number of videos using the release candidate versions of Phoenix 1.7, I wanted to make sure that nothing substantial or breaking changed between the course being released and Phoenix 1.7 being released.
Now that I've ensured that the previous videos are still relevant, I am starting to think about my release schedule.
On the landing page, I indicated that the course would be split into three phases. I have completed the videos for the first two phases of the course which includes 19 individual videos. I've taken the user from `mix phx.new` to a fully functioning chat room with a list of online users, automated join and leave messages, and "user is typing" indicators. The third and final phase focuses on Ecto and permanently storing information such as users (with signup) and chat history.
I've also released a video giving you a tour around where the application stands. This video shows the direct result of following along with me in the 19 videos from start to finish.
Now I'd love to hear your thoughts. Would you like to get early access to the course now at a discount—knowing that the final videos are yet to be released—or would you prefer to wait until all the videos are complete?
Your input is valuable and I'm eager to hear what you think. Click here if you'd like early access or reply to this email and let me know what you think.
Thank you again for your interest in the course. I'll be in touch soon with more updates.

Hi there, friend! I haven't sent out an update email for Build It With Phoenix since March. That is terrible marketing. Thankfully for you, I'm a much better teacher than I am a marketer. For the month of November, I've put all versions of Build It With Phoenix (my video course about the Phoenix framework) on sale for up to 50% off. 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 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...
