This course covers Elixir as a language along with its tooling system. On the second day we'll cover Processes, along with slicing and dicing Binary Data and OTP. The third day will be dedicated to Phoenix.
While you don't have know Elixir to take this class we will be focusing on programming and slinging a lot of code.
