Do you have any book recommendations for those topics?
Crafting interpreters [1] is one such, where the author walks you through writing an interpreter for a toy language. The book uses Kotlin IIRC, but you can write the interpreter in any language of your choice. 1. https://craftinginterpreters.com/
More of an intermediate resource, but was really good for helping to nail down some golang basics.
Would be interesting to hear from people that have taken their courses.
I've taken 2 of David Beazley's courses.[1] And, I highly recommend them. If you haven't seen some of his talks, he's very good at explaining things by building them from nothing. I took 2 courses: "Rafting Trip" and "Write a Compiler". Both were awesome. The Rafting Trip took us through implementing the Raft consensus algorithm from scratch. And the "Write a Compiler" course had us build a small language using LLVM.…

I'm still partial to LearnXinYMinutes[0]. It's how I learned enough MatLab/Octave in a couple hours to test out of an intro CS course. Usually I just use that site in addition to the official tutorial when a concept really stumps me. Here's their article on Elixir[1] [0]: https://learnxinyminutes.com [1]: https://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/elixir/
You consider this to be "for experienced coders"?
In this regard, has anyone tried codecrafters.io? Is it worth it?
CodeCrafters is a bit light on Elixir support at the moment (only 2/8 challenges support it so far). We're planning on expanding Elixir support soon.
Currently, we're a great fit for Rust / Python / Go - we support a variety of challenges for those, and there's lots of example code from other users to review and learn from.
