Building a Note-Taking Application with Elixir's LiveView and GenServer
Abul Asar S.'s article explains the process of building a simple note-taking application using Elixir's LiveView and GenServer. The application is inspired by the 'Notes' app in macOS, aiming to replicate its functionality and styling. LiveView is used to provide real-time updates to the UI without full page refreshes, while GenServer holds the application state instead of a traditional database for the purpose of demonstrating its capabilities. The article covers setting up the project, initializing and using GenServer for managing state, implementing CRUD operations, and overseeing the GenServer with a Supervisor. This is the first part of a two-part series, where the second part will integrate the already established process layer with a UI using LiveView.
