Key benefits

  • Explore the various web servers available to build robust web applications
  • Leverage Elixir's powerful Plug module to build a request-response pipeline
  • Explore advanced techniques of Elixir to create Domain-Specific languages and build scalable, maintainable web products

Description

Elixir's functional nature and metaprogramming capabilities make it an ideal language for building web frameworks, with Phoenix being the most ubiquitous framework in the Elixir ecosystem and a popular choice for companies seeking scalable web-based products. With an ever-increasing demand for Elixir engineers, developers can accelerate their careers by learning Elixir and the Phoenix web framework. With Build Your Own Web Framework in Elixir, you’ll start by exploring the fundamental concepts of web development using Elixir. You'll learn how to build a robust web server and create a router to direct incoming requests to the correct controller. Then, you'll learn to dispatch requests to controllers to respond with clean, semantic HTML, and explore the power of Domain-Specific Languages (DSL) and metaprogramming in Elixir. You'll develop a deep understanding of Elixir's unique syntax and semantics, allowing you to optimize your code for performance and maintainability. Finally, you'll discover how to effectively test each component of your application for accuracy and performance. By the end of this book, you'll have a thorough understanding of how Elixir components are implemented within Phoenix, and how to leverage its powerful features to build robust web applications.

Who is this book for?

This book is for web developers seeking to deepen their understanding of Elixir's role in the Phoenix framework. Basic familiarity with Elixir is a must.

The author starts with a review of how a web server is built, followed by controllers, routers and serving HTML. From there the book gets into metaprogramming and wraps all the functionality into a nice readable interface. All of this is done while learning how to test everything. Highly recommended for anyone looking to gain deeper insight on how Phoenix works!

I’m enjoying this book. It’s a great alternative to just diving straight into phoenix and helps to give more background into what’s happening under the hood in an elixir web application.

I often read tech books to learn a new skill or rehash an older subject, and generally I do enjoy them. However, I was grinning ear to ear with this one.As a seasoned Elixir engineer, primary focused on web technologies, I have a comprehensive understanding of the underlying machinery of, say, Phoenix. Though I often want to peek under the hood, and that’s what this book does.Aditya expertly guides you through the foundation and frameworks powering our web applications from scratch. It’s an excellent vantage point.Aside from that, his elegant style is something I’ll no doubt borrow in my own code.If you’re an Elixir dev searching for a new book, after having read them all, look no further.

The book is well written. Explains the concepts in a concise and easy-to-understand way. It is easy to read and follow. All of the code fragments I tested compiled successfully and worked correctly. It is a great in-depth introduction to the Elixir Phoenix framework and what's under the hood.

The book starts off I received early access to this programming book. The book starts with building with Cowboy then leads you into the details of writing a web server from scratch. This step-by-step approach ensures even beginners can follow along without feeling overwhelmed.One standout feature of this book is its emphasis on testing. It not only teaches you how to create a web server but also demonstrates how to add tests for it. This focus on testing practices instills good coding habits and prepares you for real-world scenarios. Furthermore, the book acts as a great stepping stone toward understanding big libraries like Phoenix. By exploring the internals of a web server, you gain valuable insights into the underlying principles that power larger frameworks.The writing style is engaging and approachable, making it enjoyable for readers new to programming. Code examples fill the book. In conclusion, this programming book is a gem for anyone interested in web development. I recommend it to aspiring developers looking to solidify their understanding and take their skills to the next level.
