Preface

Learning Elixir, Phoenix and Ash is a steep climb. No sugar-coating. This book aims to make that ascent less steep. It’s a guide crafted for beginners.

A step-by-step guide. While no prior knowledge is required, a basic understanding of programming and HTML will be beneficial.
Bite-sized "Hello World!" code examples. Crafted for comprehension just by reading the code, with added notes for clarity. No abstract programming theories.
Simplicity is key. My goal is to get you productive ASAP.
Not a beauty contest. We’re not investing much time in aesthetics. This is not a CSS design book.

If a section doesn’t resonate with you, skip it. You can circle back later if needed. I recommend reading the book in order, but it’s not required.
