How to Implement Asynchronous Streaming in Phoenix LiveView

Type: Post

Jakub Lambrych's article provides an in-depth look at implementing asynchronous streaming in Phoenix LiveView (v0.20.0). The article covers how new functions like `assign_sync/3`, `start_async/4`, and `async_result` components enhance LiveView's ability to handle asynchronous tasks without UI blocking. Jakub then details how to extend these capabilities for streams, allowing efficient management of large collections. A complete example demonstrates fetching and asynchronously streaming a list of hotels, along with a macro (`stream_async/4`) to simplify repetitive boilerplate code. The article concludes with instructions on using a hex package for easier implementation.
