Elixir Newbie

In today's episode we talk with none other than Bruce Tate. Bruce is one of the main voices, if not the main voice, in the Elixir education space.

Bruce is the head of Grox.io, an education platform focused on Elixir, and he has also written, edited, and published numerous Elixir books.

As an educator myself, it was very interesting to talk to Bruce and learn from his experiences teaching Elixir. During the conversation, we touch upon some of the main challenges and pleasures of the craft. Whether you are a Newbie who is studying Elixir for the first time, someone who is delving deeper into different aspects of the PETAL stack, or a teacher who is interested in passing your knowledge effectively, you will surely find Bruce's insights and resources very valuable.

In this episode, Elixir Newbie and co-host Jon Valdivia talks with Michał Śledź, who is one of the main developers of Membrane in Software Mansion.

Membrane is a (or shall we say the) audio and video library for Elixir. They provide the tools for you to write your own multimedia solution in Elixir. In a world of remote video and audio collaborations, this is something very interesting for developers.

Michał and Jon will discuss current projects and challenges of working with audio and video in Elixir, as well as opportunities for Newbies who want to learn Membrane, and even develop professionally in this direction.

Today I am joined by Sam Aaron, creator of Sonic Pi.

If you do not know Sonic Pi you are in for a treat. Sam Aaron is a visionary developer who decided to solve one of the most problematic issues in education: getting children to focus. His answer to the problem? Introduce fun and games.

How is this related to Elixir? Well... I recommend you listen to the full episode, because as Sam points out, Music is all about concurrency, and our very own Jose Valim has been sponsoring the development of this project.

If you are so inclined, Sam welcomes Elixir developers to contribute to his efforts to push the boundaries of this field. You may want to get in touch!
