[sanitycheck]

Single data point:

I spent a few hours following a couple of different (Phoenix) "getting started" guides earlier this year. Nether of them "got me started", but instead into a semi-installed broken state unable to progress without delving into other docs/stackoverflow/etc.

I am no longer in my twenties, I have no patience with that, I take it as a sign that the tech is still for enthusiasts only and I should take another look in a couple more years.

If I was being paid to learn it, I'd persevere, but I was simply curious so I'll wait for others to smooth off the rough edges.
