Pragmatic Answers Series

If you are interested in writing, but not sure if you want to commit to a full-length book, take a look at the new Pragmatic Answers series. We just launched it with Venkat Subramaniam’s new beta book, (@venkats ) Programming DSLs in Kotlin. The short-form (50 pp) allows you to get started writing quickly and offer hands-on advice to help programmers solve real problems they are facing. Questions?

Sounds like a good idea @Margaret - people often ask for deployment guides for Elixir/Phoenix, so I’m pretty sure one on that topic could go down well :smiley:

Thanks for the idea. I’ll pass along the suggestion to Louise. I know she’s working on getting us more Elixir books.
