Metaprogramming Elixir

Re: Metaprogramming Elixir
#22For anyone looking to learn more about Elixir/Erlang, here's a dump of links that I posted recently to the local Atlanta Elixir Meetup group. Roughly in the order I'd recommend consuming them. Dave Thomas - Power of Erlang, Joy of Ruby - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lww1aZ-ldz0 Dave Thomas Elixirconf Keynote - Think Different- http://www.confreaks.com/videos/4119-elixirconf2014-opening-... elixir-lang.org tutorial…
If I may, I feel that there's a better version of the first video. The version you linked suffers from terrible framing where you can't see a single line of code he writes. This video has a much better view, but unfortunately has awful sound. For me though, code is more important than sound quality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQwEmdOH-GM
yeah, I found that one, but I couldn't deal with the sound and I felt that the videos were more about getting the general idea of Elixir and understanding some of the things you could do with it in an infotainment way.
I know were you're coming from though, its a really good preso with surprisingly bad recordings.
Re: Metaprogramming Elixir
#23Even coming in with a few years experience in Clojure and having spent time writing macros in Elixir I have found this to be a really worthwhile read (so far). That said, this should not be your first Elixir book (as Chris points out in the book's introduction). It should be your second, especially if you are interested in writing libraries.
Dave Thomas' Programming Elixir should be the first :)
Agreed - fantastic book and very well written.
You can get a taster of it by watching his keynote at ElixirConf. [1]

Awesome list! I also did two presentations at RedDotRubyConf 2014 and RubyConf 2014 on Elixir:
Rubyists! Have a sip of Elixir – http://www.confreaks.com/videos/5078-RubyConf2014-rubyists-h...
Ruby + Elixir – Polyglot FTW! – http://www.confreaks.com/videos/3845-rdrc2014-ruby-elixir-po...
Also, I'm writing a book on Elixir – http://www.exotpbook.com
Finally, I've done a few posts of Elixir – http://benjamintan.io/blog/tags/elixir/
