From Erlang to Elixir - A Practitioner's Guide to the BEAM Ecosystem (self-published) (free)

I have a sharing session about the Elixir ecosystem for Erlang developers. I feel that people are still confused about the differences between Erlang and Elixir, and what benefits they can get by moving to Elixir.

So, I created an open-source book to help people understand the differences more clearly and guide them into the Elixir ecosystem.

The book is targeted at people who have knowledge of Erlang/OTP and is divided into six parts:

  • Part I – Foundations: What Transfers
  • Part II – Language Power-ups: What Elixir Adds
  • Part III – The Ecosystem Map
  • Part IV – AI on the BEAM
  • Part V – Practice & Direction
  • Part VI – Under the Hood: Deep Dives

Thank you very much! It also helps me learn Elixir even if I don’t have knowledge about Erlang.

First, it’s nice to hear from an Elixir developer from Vietnam!

And most importantly, the guide looks good! I’m gonna give it a go and let you know in a few days or weeks how it worked out!
