If you don't pick a db, where do you store data ?



That would be step one out of the first three that I bother with :).


I read "skipping steps 1-3" instead of "keeping steps 1-3", my bad.

Do you have good resources for learning Elixir with OTP and Phoenix ? I also believe LiveView can deliver the 80% of functionalities for 20% of the price, so I'm very interested in learning it


I can also recommend Programming Phoenix. I've also heard good things about the LiveView courses on the Pragmatic Studio.

"Programming Elixir" and "Designing Elixir Systems with OTP" are also good, the former more so if you get started. From what I remember "Programming Phoenix" was enough to get started though, and these two books are better at getting deeper knowledge of Elixir/OTP.


Programming Phoenix 1.4 is probably the best book. Very friendly and easy to follow (and written by the Phoenix and Elixir creators)
