Are there any courses to learn Elixir through the lens of a Javascript developer?

Greetings Elixir Developers,

My name is Daniel, and I am taking my first step to learn all about the Elixir language. Currently I have a background in JavaScript, and React. When speaking of the Elixir language I noticed the syntax is quite short and the over all language is explicit.

My question is to know if there are any courses to learn Elixir through the lens of a Javascript developer.

Thank you to all those who answer and I am excited to start my journey and meet all the great Elixir Developer here.

Functional programming through the lens of imperative programming causes confusion for learners. Only my personal experience.

Names might sound similar - but context will be different. In elixir, most of the programming revolves around using Enum module or recursion. for in javascript and elixir are little different.

If I were to learn elixir from scratch - I would forget about other languages and start with Home · Elixir School or Introduction - The Elixir programming language to learn about elixir.

There are some good courses which have been mentioned in this thread.
