Thanks FreeCodeCamp for publishing this course! I really enjoyed making this course and I personally love working with Elixir. Elixir is really awesome programming language and I hope the community too have fun learning it 😀

I'm currently at 51:00 but I need to say it already, the instructor is amazing. I'm able to clearly understand the concepts and topics thanks to him. Elixir is a really cool language, thanks Octallium! Love from Brazil

[EricShans]

Thank you for this. Prepping for my next job where they use Elixir - didn't realize you had a full course as I watched the first few lessons on your channel !

[muhammadtaimoor]

So happy to see this, I was already feeling that this language didn't have much tutorial content on YouTube

[mumk]

I am at 41 minutes and so far it has already been very useful and informative, cheers

[bbhoxe]

Thank you so much for this awesome course! I feel like it was a great introduction to Elixir and it definitely left me hungry to learn more :>

[_beekay]

I have programming experience in Python and Go. Recently, I joined a startup company that is handling projects in Elixir. I bet this would be a good foundation for me. (To update my progress after completing this tutorial).

[MohitKanani-qb]

It was a great learning experience of functional programming. Thank you for the course.

[gothama]

Thanks for the great tutorial and specially for the unlearning part, also kindly check the timestamps under Strings if can split to more data type sections, thanks!

[tyronenorth]

I was just looking for an elixir tutorial and google(not YouTube) notified me of this course dropping

[adityanr]

Thank you for the great tutorial on elixir !! 💙 Please make a tutorial on Phoenix 1.7 framework as well.. There aren't much tutorials on phoenix. especially the updated one (phoenix 1.7). That will be much appreciated ! Thanks again ! 😇

[biscotty]

Thank you very much for an excellent video and I look forward to seeing the supplemental material in your repo.

[ibrahimshehuibrahim]

my favorite programming language ❤❤❤❤❤

[tamirhalperin]

I tried following the concept of immutable until about 30 minutes into this video. But it is completely self-contradicting to say that a variable is immutable and then to show with "a = 2" that a is now 2 right after showing that "a =1" binds a to 1. To any level of logic, this example shows that a is not immutable. If a can be 1 and then right after that a can be 2, this is a demonstration of a variable that is obviously mutable. Using the pin operator to prevent mutation introduces another operator that establishes an immutable operation, but this is not the same as the variable being immutable.

Nice, I am reading the programmer passport elixir😆

[vishnuvirat]

Pls Make Tutorials on Phoenix 1.7 with PostgressSQL database.

[Mr-Buggy-Man]

at end it's needed start point big bang, it not start from no step
if you say before the 0 step their is step and so on for infinity, no thing will happen and you get void "nothing printed", because if their infinity switch depend on each other the lamp won't turn on

[dr.milindkulkarni]

Excellent presentation, very nicely explained.

Great video but Project Stats - Implementing Mean appears twice. From 4:12:00 - 4:30:45 and 4:30:46 - 4:49:31.
