Episode 132 of [Thinking Elixir](https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com). LiveView isn’t always the right answer. [Chris Nelson](https://twitter.com/superchris) created LiveState to enable embedding custom HTML components in other websites and connect over Phoenix channels to keep UI state on the server! LiveState takes an interesting approach that tries to keep many of the benefits of LiveView but apply it to situations like custom components in static sites hosted by other people. Chris explains how it works and what problems it solves. Check it out!
