it's such a weird concept to me.. "server-rendered html" is what i was doing most of my webdev career and suddenly it's the "hot new thing"?

anyway i still don't see why i would need it with Clojure if i can have single codebase and language for backend and frontend and render whatever i want at either -end.

Because with LiveView you can throw away 90% of your JavaScript and work almost exclusively with Elixir both on the frontend and the back end.

Right, but I could also throw away 100% of my JavaScript and not have to deal with any of the nodejs/npm/webpack/whatever nonsense if I used Clojure.
