Just do everything on the server and send the result to the client instead of building an API so the client can turn the data into UI, everything is so much easier.
This is why LiveView is so good.
More secure, device performance is ignored, dev ex is better.

100% why I use Elixir for web dev these days in professional and side projects ❤️
#MyElixirStatus
The pendulum swings again: in the past, web frameworks *were* one person. But once applications grew in complexity and JavaScript started playing a bigger role in them, it was no longer the case.
This growth in complexity was what drove me way from web-dev back then. [1/6]
