LiveView has provided a new way of making interactive UIs with Phoenix. However, it also has its limits. You can only work with HTML-based user interfaces in the browser. LiveData attempts to generalize the ideas behind LiveView to work with JSON, which has a wide range of uses:
* Easy integration with Javascript apps
* LiveView-like development of mobile apps
* Redux pattern over the network
This talk will give an introduction to the tech behind LiveData, before diving into some potential applications.
Talk objectives:
Announce and provide an introduction to the LiveData library I have been working on for a while.
Target audience:
Anyone with an interest in Phoenix/LiveView, and how it can be generalized to work with JSON data.
