Congratulations Chris, Jose and the Phoenix core team on Phoenix 1.5 and the livedashboard.
I used liveview in https://readastorytome.com https://readastorytome.com. I posted it here last week and it stayed on the front page for a good few hours. I was concerned about load, so before I posted it I upgraded my $5 DO box to a 4 core box which turned out to be completely unnecessary. The CPU load stayed in the 2-3% range the entire time it was on the front page, which is pretty amazing considering how much traffic was coming in.
Funnily enough I came across the livedashboard repo just before I posted it, so I set it up and I was using it to monitor my app live while it was on the frontpage of HN.
The dev experience is pretty amazing - I don't think I would have been able to write this app as quickly and to add new features at the pace I have been in any other language.
So thank you Chris, Jose and the Phoenix/Elixir team.
