Real-time UI without writing JavaScript. The BEAM VM handles millions of concurrent connections effortlessly.

LiveView proves server-rendered real-time UI is viable. For CRUD apps with real-time needs, it eliminates the SPA.

v3 addresses the key limitation — jobs that need to run for hours, not just seconds. Essential for AI agent tasks.

Futurist

Server-rendered real-time UI is the sleeper approach. LiveView, HTMX, and similar tools challenge SPA dominance.

80/100 · ship
