I decided to learn Elixir in 2024. It isn't off to the start I had planned.
I really love the language so far but I cannot seem to find up-to date...

I havens reflected on this, but you are probably right. When I started messing around with Elixir and Phoenix I followed the docs and a bunch of googling. But there are resources to be had, and Ice actually followed along a bit with a YouTube series where we build a GitHub Gist Clone: Building a GitHub Gist Clone with Phoenix LiveView
Perhaps that is something for you? Also, I'm just learning as well. Would love to dive into any more sources you find!
That YouTube series looks great (and it is current too!). Thanks!
joyofelixir.com/ is free :)
In my personal experience the best way to learn is doing projects.
small projects and then look the official docs and forums to search for answers.
For example:
Take a look at this react website reactpractice.dev/ and you can try and do the same exercises in LiveView.
I solved some of those exercises here :)
github.com/ElixirCL/surface-practice/
Thanks for pointing me to joyofelixir @clsource!
If you are into books, I recommend Elixir In Action. It’s new (published in 2024) so it is covering topics in the current version. I an also learning Elixir this year and plan on using Exercism to practice. Good luck on your learning.
I agree. The saving grace is that it's a supportive community and generally really good and consistent documentation.
