Remote Elixir Book Club (takes place on Discord)

Hi there! :wave:

Set details:

  • The book club will run every other Sunday starting on Sunday July 18th
  • We will cover two chapters in each meeting
  • Each meeting will be roughly an hour long
  • Meetings will be via video call (currently planning on Google Meet)

Open questions:

  • What book to cover
  • What time of day to meet

What book should we cover next?

Hi, you should read the chapters before the meeting. We will be covering two chapters in each meeting but meeting every other week. This first meeting was more of a kickoff so we’ll be covering the first two chapters two weeks from now.
