Understanding Phoenix Channels and Comparisons with Similar Technologies
kero5 is investigating Elixir/Phoenix and Phoenix Liveview for near-real-time applications. They are particularly interested in understanding the additional features Phoenix Channels provides over raw websockets, such as automatic reconnection, presence detection, built-in pubsub, and ease of integration with the Phoenix framework. They also seek comparisons between Phoenix Channels, ASPNET's SignalR, and Go's websocket libraries, specifically Centrifuge. Additionally, kero5 is curious about how Phoenix Liveview manages websocket connections in various scenarios, such as multiple components on a page or multiple tabs opened by a user.
