Hi, I just finished reading Programming Phoenix LiveView B10 PDF edition.
I found some typos and errata, and I will report them all in this post.
Note that when I refer to a page number, I’m referring to the PDF page number, and not the number present on the book.

PAGES WHERE THERE IS SOME CODE WITHOUT THE USUAL HEADER (file name with a link)
189, 190, 200, 204, 206, 211, 227, 271, 317, 357, 368, 376, 377, 381, 384, 393, 394 and in almost all the paragraphs relating to tests.

TYPOS

• Page 90: replace updated_at with :updated_at
• Page 92: the sentence “[…] and the sku to be unique” does not end with a full stop
• Page 117: replace “once LiveVie” with “once LiveView”
• Page 155: replace “on longer” with “no longer”
• Page 172: params_with_image is not highlighted
• Page 260: replace “dataset for our chat” with “dataset for our chart”
• Page 285: replace “let’s you render” with “lets you render”
• Page 376: replace “rastor graphics” with “raster graphics”

OTHER ERRATA

• Page 120: header/0 should be header/1
• Page 153: says to try the code written so far but it won’t compile because the form is not assigned in the mount method
• Page 170: there is a missing <% end %> in the code
• Page 194: queries other than base should be removed because they will be added later
• Page 195: you don’t use preload/2 in with_user_ratings but in the other function. The book does not even explain what it means to preload something in a query
• Page 210: use Phoenix.HTML is no longer supported, use should add it to mix.deps and import it
• Page 230: there is no handler for the validate event
• Page 235: remove the call to rating live show
• Page 258: assign_products_with_average_rating/2 should be assign_products_with_average_rating/1
• In the chart template section, there is the code for the gender filter, but it won’t compile because all the other code should be implemented by the user in the exercises, remove it
• Page 306: the mentioned code is swapped with the code at the next page
• Page 316: remove :register_and_log_in_user from the setup
• Page 314: in create_user_attrs and create_user2_attrs the education field is missing; it should be there if the user followed the exercises.
• Page 322: code is not matching description
• Page 326: URL should be /admin/dashboard
• Page 322: HTML tag is not title but text so the assert condition should be changed
• Page 334: URL should be /admin/dashboard
• Page 363: alias of Shape is missing
• Page 375: the subdirectory should not be called pento but game_live
• Page 381: code does not compile because GameLive.Colors is not yet defined, so you should not tell the reader to try it
• Page 381: svg attribute should be viewBox instead of view_box
• Page 383: no need to create another file called component.ex, we already did that
• Page 388: factors are 4 and 5, not 3 and 4
• Page 386: code has no header, and it should be called palette instead of draw
• Page 394: the code should call Board.to_shapes instead of Board.to_shape and should not encapsulate the result in another list
• Page 397: function should not be called draw and does not render inner_block correctly
• Page 398: function should not be called draw
• Page 398: No braces encapsulating rotate in the code because it is svg function
• Page 398: The function is not triangle/1 but triangle/4
• Page 398: attribute fill cannot be equal to the color of shape because there is no shape here
• Page 411: setting a flash inside a live_component does not work! (Phoenix.LiveView — Phoenix LiveView v0.20.14)
• Page 415: Code does not work until now because it does not call Board.puzzles()
• Page 412: the icon component should be called with class="mini' instead of adding mini directly as a class

OTHER SUGGESTIONS

• Provide solutions to exercises! They are very, very, very useful.
• Do not give an exercise about creating an Ecto migration before explaining what migrations are at page 133
• Explain in more detail the difference between Conn.struct and socket
• Show how to create and authenticate administrators, it’s a common task for which it is useful to have a good practice (or an example at least)
• At page 329, explain what are the “some params” you mention
• At page 415 the capture syntax is explained but it’s used in the book before

These are a lot of errata! I hope you will fix them before the “stable” release of the book.

Cheers
