Very interesting and learning video conf. I was planning to learn Phoenix LiveView with Inventory and Sales services as starter project. Now, I dunno if I should use Elixir itself or Phoenix LiveView, someone with useful links or thoughts?

Not sure what you mean? You can't use Phoenix Liveview without using Elixir, just like you can't use Django without using Python and you can't use Rails without using Ruby. Phoenix is a library, Elixir is the language you'll write your Phoenix app in.
Aw, gotcha, I thought Elixir was a framework of ERLANG actually. I have never done or search for it! Thank you for the clarification!
Elixir is a language on the Erlang platform (kinda like Kotlin is to Java). Phoenix is the predominant web framework for Elixir and includes LiveView.
