LiveViewJS – TypeScript back end for LiveView Apps (Phoenix LiveView)
Author here. I really love the programming paradigm behind by Phoenix LiveView applications and wanted to expand the ecosystem to include programmers like myself that love Typescript. In summary, LiveViewJS reuses all the Phoenix client code and implemented a new backend in Typescript to handle client events and send back updates. Lots more detail and examples in the repo. Would love any questions and/or feedback. Thanks!

In plain words
LiveViewJS is a TypeScript backend for building LiveView applications, bringing the Phoenix LiveView programming model to TypeScript developers. It reuses Phoenix's client code while providing a new server implementation in TypeScript to handle client events and render updates. The tool is designed for developers who prefer TypeScript and want to build reactive web applications using LiveView's real-time, server-driven architecture.

I've been writing Elixir for 5 years and made plenty of sites with Phoenix and LiveView but my biggest gripe has always been with the lack of quality UI components available. The JS ecosystem has so many, and it's the one thing I miss from being primarily a React & Node developer. So this is my attempt at bringing some pretty and useful components most applications need to Phoenix projects to try and fill in the gaps between what makes LiveView such a productive joy to work with. The library is very very raw and requires some initial clean up so PRs are very welcome to tidy up the DX as well…

live-paint (https://paint.liveviews.cc/) is a demonstration of ts-liveview v2-rc3. The server converts JSX expression into plain HTML response. The UI is then updated via websocket. As opposite to React.js. The DOM updates are fired from server, and instructed with query selector (no virtual DOM). Hence, the amount of javascript downloaded and executed by client are minimal (or even optional for static web pages).

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
