Any Elixir tutorials?

I am learning Elixir at the moment but am finding it difficult to learn. The issue is there aren’t any good tutorial sites out there when compared to say GoRails.

Definitely check https://elixircasts.io

It’s a short, digestible and an accurate source of knowledge.

Also there so much books about Elixir, Phoenix, and OTP here.

If you’re more a video learner, I also highly recommend the pragmatic studio Elixir/OTP course. Mike and Nicole are very good at teaching and the course is breeze to follow along.
