Started to get back into Erlang yesterday, to to build a little something with MQTT. I had fun, but making stuff OTP-compatible was tough for me. The docs are there, but they are *dense*. Still wrapping my head around a lot of things.

What are good resources for learning how to build IoT-adjacent services with Erlang/OTP?
I mainly feed of Learn You Some Erlang for Great Good (https://learnyousomeerlang.com/), The Erlang Programming Language by Joe himself, and the recently discovered Let Erlang Crash (https://cloudstreet-dev.github.io/Let-Erlang-Crash/), as well as the reference documentation on https://erlang.org/docs/.
