Elixir Talk

# Episode 157 – LiveView & The Future of Phoenix ft. Chris McCord Today on ElixirTalk we’re joined by Chris McCord who you may know as the creator of the Phoenix framework, and a second time guest on ElixirTalk. In this episode we talk quite a bit about LiveView, the journey of taking it from a prototype to release, the optimizations that have come along the way, and some of the great examples of LiveView running today. We get into some of our previous discussions about the balance of LiveView vs Javascript with Chris and how we frame the benefits of using the technology today. Additionally we hear about what’s on the roadmap for Phoenix, and the roadmap outside of the Phoenix core library itself. Thanks as always to Chris and the Phoenix Core team for their work! ## Links * ElixirConf 2018 – Announcing LiveView: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2DU0qLfPIY * ElixirConf 2019 – Chris’ Keynote: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txk4WAlabvI * What’s new and next for LiveView: https://dockyard.com/blog/2019/09/06/whats-new-and-next-for-phoenix-liveview * LiveView JavaScript Hooks: https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix_live_view/Phoenix.LiveView.html#module-javascript-client-specific * LiveView in Marlus’ ElixirConf talk – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPu-P97-cbE * Phoenix Presence and CRDTs: https://dockyard.com/blog/2016/03/25/what-makes-phoenix-presence-special-sneak-peek * Dark Lang: https://darklang.com * Oban Job Library: https://github.com/sorentwo/oban * Our discussion on LiveView: https://soundcloud.com/elixirtalk/episode-154-a-great-intro-elixirconf-recap-javascript-v-liveview * Phoenix Phrenzy Competition: https://phoenixphrenzy.com/ * Dockyard: http://dockyard.com
