LiveView wasn’t ready yet when I started our startup (react on front, Elixir and Hasura on back).

But man, I wish it had been. React is nice enough but the idea of not having to redefine my types at several different layers and fight with npm sounds like a dream.

We were in a similar position. CMS ran on dead views with a bit of progressive enhancement first, and then we had a couple of react apps around for interactive parts. When liveview was released we tried it out and it basically “just worked” as much as a software lib can, so set about getting rid of the react.
