Sorry I didn’t read the topic of timer vs counter. The timer example is at curriculum/exercises/timer.livemd at main · DockYard-Academy/curriculum · GitHub.
I think the academy curriculum is a good companion to exercism.io. I had the privilege of going through a beta cohort and being compelled to work through the materials 5-6 days a week helped solidify concepts I wasn’t grokking. Exercism’s syllabus is a great way of gating complex topics behind fundamentals but I think analysis paralysis made it hard for me to stick with it. The academy curriculum also covers topics outside of language fundamentals.
LiveViews are a genserver under the hood so what you have should work according to the proposed solutions. I prefer Process.send_after personally but you have to call it every time you process the message. handle_info is used to capture messages you pass from inside or outside the current process. From the Surface and LiveView docs it’s possible you may need to use Phoenix.LiveView — Phoenix LiveView v1.2.5. That isn’t supposed to be a concern for just a genserver but liveviews and their components take a little extra work to synchronize the state between processes.
