Hi All. I’ve started to look at Surface and it looks really good. I have a fairly complex LiveView app at the moment and I was considering tranitioning to Surface. I wondered if anyone with some experience could answer a couple of questions: Are there any additional performance challenges with us…

Thanks everyone for the great answers. I’m definitely going to try out Surface now. cheers Dave

In addition to what @derek-zhou said, Surface comes with a lot of features that Phoenix Live View does not support (yet?). Here is a non-exhaustive list of these features: Declarative properties with prop, slot, data Multiple slots that are placeholders declared by a component that you can fill up…

Thanks for the exhaustive answer! :if and :for definitely made it much nicer to build. Event handlers too. Yet to try some of the patterns. Did find forms a bit easier to build in Surface than pure LiveView. Mainly because I haven’t fully wrapped my head around schemaless changesets. I will join …

Hi, I started migrating to surface last weekend. I haven’t migrated everything yet but it’s no problem including LV components in surface components. It was a little rocky at first figuring out how to do a few things like dynamic attributes and attributes with no value but there are several closed i…

I would love to se some projects which used Surface. At the point where I tried to use it I found it problematic that I was having trouble adding it to .leex files. Seeing @cmo answer, I would be interested to see the proper syntax!

As in, using your Surface components in .leex files? If you’re just using Surface, you change your .html.leex to .sface, otherwise the docs talk about using it in Phoenix templates here but I have not gone down that path. If you want to see examples, check out: puemos/radiopush: Create communitie…

@msaraiva @derek-zhou Maybe I’ve misread Surface entirely and in that case I apologize from the bottom of my heart :bowing_man: otherwise I’m wondering whether you would have 1-2 best practices you’d recommend regarding apps using something like [Skærmbillede 2021-10-08 kl. 16.54.14] Issues in …

[image] wdiechmann: LINKS I’ve devoured your LIV repo, @derek-zhou and that seems to lean heavy on a kind of SPA concept but I’ve had a hard time finding the “links” where the user will LiveRedirect sort-of :slightly_frowning_face: In the Liv repo I do not use live_redirect at all; only live_…

I don’t think you are allowed to release a library of the tailwind UI components in some other framework, if that is your intention.

@cmo I acknowledge the implications but surely Adam will not take offense as long as any “implementation” merely identifies the components, like <Button> – I’m leaving the choice of classes entirely up to the integrator. In fact I’m not planning on releasing anything as close to TailwindUI as surfa…

I don’t find any mentioning of reduction of compilation time there.
