Thoughts
LiveView first impressions Thought:
It's called Phoenix Framework not LiveView. LiveView is the component/paradigm that the framework provides.
Erlang's magical process model lets them handle millions of websocket connections. This lets them get to 10k current, but I still question the memory usage. 10k * 100kb is a meg, I guess that's not awful. But 100kb is almost a lower bound.
Oh my word so many words. Mix, Hex, Erlang, Elixr
The difference, I think, between LFSA and LiveView is that LiveView focuses on streaming UI updates constantly, but fundamentally is just server side rendering.
