Let's discuss Phoenix LiveView

Hi, For a comparison with where LiveView looks like it might be heading, in the Java world, Apache Wicket is a highly successful open source, component oriented, serverside web application framework that’s been doing server side since 2004 and with many thousands of production websites (being one of the few survivors of the Java serverside web framework wars of the mid 2000’s).

It successfully handles the impedance mismatch between the stateless nature of HTTP and the need to handle complex state without the usual MVC world of requests, routes, controllers, views etc.

Obviously it’s not as sophisticated as LiveView promises to be, however it’s a very successful model well worth looking at for lessons.
