Phoenix is a modern web framework built for the Elixir programming language. Elegant, fault-tolerant, and performant, Phoenix is as easy to use as Rails and as rock-solid as Elixir’s Erlang-based foundation. Phoenix in Action builds on your existing web dev skills, teaching you the unique benefits of Phoenix along with just enough Elixir to get the job done.
Phoenix in Action is an example-based tutorial that teaches you how to use the Phoenix framework to build production-quality web apps. Following a running example of an online auction site, you’ll design and build everything from the core components that drive the app to the real-time user interactions where Phoenix really shines. You’ll handle business logic, database interactions, and app designs that take advantage of functional programming as you discover a better way to develop web applications.
