Frequently Asked Questions
What is Phoenix LiveView?
Phoenix LiveView is a library that enables rich, real-time user experiences with server-rendered HTML. It maintains a persistent WebSocket connection between the browser and server, allowing the server to push updates instantly without full page reloads. This eliminates the need for JavaScript frameworks for most interactive features.
Do LiveView jobs require JavaScript knowledge?
While LiveView reduces the need for JavaScript significantly, some positions may require JavaScript knowledge for client-side hooks, integrations with external libraries, or hybrid approaches. However, the primary focus is on Elixir and LiveView's server-side model.
Is LiveView experience required for these jobs?
Most positions listed here specifically mention LiveView as a requirement or strong preference. If you have Phoenix experience but are new to LiveView, many companies are willing to train developers who demonstrate strong Elixir fundamentals.
What types of applications use LiveView?
LiveView is used for a wide range of applications: real-time dashboards, collaborative editing tools, live forms with instant validation, chat applications, admin panels, e-commerce sites, and any application requiring real-time updates without complex JavaScript.
How does LiveView compare to React or Vue?
LiveView takes a different approach than React or Vue by handling state and rendering on the server. This results in less client-side code, simpler state management, and better SEO. The trade-off is slightly higher latency for user interactions, though for most applications this is imperceptible.
