For first time learning they are pretty confusing as they don’t even tell you which location the code snippets should be in or what other locations need to be modified. People often just link the Hexdocs as if people hadn’t already found them and the Hexdocs only ever feel useful when you already know what the process you’re trying to is and just need a refresher. Yeah, it’s a weird combination of lots of information being available but it all feeling pretty useless when you are new. I am very enthusiastic regarding Elixir+Phoenix+LiveView and intend to use these great tools to rewrite my existing commercial web application, which is currently written with Elixir+Angular. I apologize that this post is a little negative. Hence, why not include the basics of LiveView in a comprehensive Phoenix+LiveView “getting started” guide? For me at least, it seems that LiveView is now an integral and essential component of Phoenix. IMHO the official documentation really needs and deserves a much more extensive “getting started” user guide, especially for LiveView. Maybe I just haven’t figured out the organization of this documentation yet, but so far it seems to me that it isn’t very useful for people just getting started with Phoenix LiveView. So, this leaves folks with only the latest official Phoenix and LiveView documentation. The authors, Mike and Nicole, are busy creating an up-to-date refresh, but it might be some time (I’m afraid) before the update is available. Unfortunately, this course is fairly out-of-date, especially now that Phoenix 1.7 and LiveView 0.18 are out (“almost” in the case of Phoenix 1.7). The best learning resource I’ve found so far is the video course from “The Pragmatic Studio”. I have been trying to learn Phoenix LiveView for a couple of months now.
