Integrating a Custom Tooltip Component into a Phoenix Project
Andrew Timberlake's blog post provides a guide on creating a tooltip component within a Phoenix LiveView project. The tutorial includes step-by-step instructions on building the tooltip component in Elixir, integrating CSS for styling, and involving JavaScript to handle the tooltip's lifecycle with PopperJS. It covers the Elixir module setup for generating tooltips with dynamic IDs, the construction of a LiveView for displaying colored tooltips, the necessary CSS customization, and constructing a Tooltip JavaScript class to create and manage popper instances. The author emphasizes the use of Phoenix Hooks for binding JavaScript interactivity to the respective DOM elements within the Phoenix framework. The tutorial concludes with complete code examples on GitHub, making it a practical resource for Elixir and Phoenix developers looking to enhance UI interactivity in their applications.
