What? These days it even comes with a Dockerfile. Yes, it's harder than copying PHP files, but have you ever administered a server running PHP? These days containers are the de-facto standard for any non-trivial application for a reason.

Containerising PHP on the other hand is a bigger pain, as you need to set up Apache, fpm, php.ini and all the myriad of php libraries, THEN your actual code.

Dude, stop with the misinformation. Phoenix is not Live View, and it's a web framework like any other. Either you're willingly spreading FUD, or you just don't know what you're talking about.

This reminds me of a certain HN user deep into Rails that for a couple of years came to shit in every Elixir thread saying learning it is a waste of time and new developers should be learning Ruby instead.
