Introduction to Phoenix LiveDashboard Standalone (PLDS)
Phoenix LiveDashboard helps teams visualize and identify issues in production systems, previously only available for Phoenix apps. Philip Sampaio introduces PLDS (Phoenix LiveDashboard Standalone), a command-line tool allowing LiveDashboard to access remote systems directly from localhost. PLDS offers similar functionality to `:observer` and requires only a browser and Elixir installed on the local machine. The article provides instructions for connecting to remote nodes, including port forwarding and finding necessary ports. PLDS is advantageous for debugging and observing systems, particularly those with limited resources like those running Nerves.
