I would encourage you to check out [LiveState](https://github.com/launchscout/live_state) if you’re interested in exploring these ideas. The idea of LiveState is to give you the same state management via light-weight processes in Elixir leveraging Phoenix Channels, but allow you to do simple client side rendering for situations where that is preferable. Many of the examples use custom elements, but its easy to use with React, or even with simple client side templates in html using [live-templates](https://github.com/launchscout/live-templates). It’s fairly mature at this point, and is actually quite simple as it is a thin veneer over channels for the most part.
