Failing Big with Elixir and LiveView - A Post-Mortem

I hope its gotten more performance centric since I last touched it, it was horribly horribly inefficient compared to Drab. With Drab you could quite literally send the minimal tiny bit of changes, like if you want to extend a list of things or update a field it’s a single call to send a tiny bit of data where with LiveView it had to re-render the html and send it over and use mergedom or something like that to merge its changes in, which was incredibly heavy!
