I am happy to announce that I am completing final rounds of my Phoenix book and am opening up pre-order for my book with 15% off.

You can read more about the book at https://shankardevy.com/phoenix-book/

Topics covered in the book are:

• Learn just enough Elixir to dive into Phoenix
• Create a mini-Phoenix framework using Elixir and Cowboy
• Plug magic in Phoenix Endpoint, Router and Controller
• Develop an ecommerce site in Phoenix using Test Driven Development
• Practical Ecto Cookbook
• Blueprints to help you better design your project
• Access to lots of handy reference cheatsheets!
• Full access to all code repos used in this book.

Phoenix Inside Out is approx 350 pages and is organised in three parts as follows:

• Part I. (Introduce) Readers might come to Phoenix without knowing Elixir. So teach them just enough basic to understand Phoenix code. Knowing the language fully well is indeed necessary for mastery but it’s very easy to get lost in learning Elixir.

• Part II. (Demystify) The book explains the internals of Phoenix by showing user how to create something like Phoenix. I believe the best way to learn how a framework works is to create it yourselves. And the best way to use it in your project is to learn how it works.

• Part III. (Empower) The book demonstrates building an commerce site using TDD. Hound is used for acceptance testing. This part also introduces Ecto and Contexts as in Phoenix 1.3. I also explain various deployment options that you can put to use in your project.

Practical Ecto cookbook is approx 120 pages with about 60+ recipes under the following headings

• Schema
• Embedded Schema
• Migration
• Changeset
• Association
• Query
