LiveBeats: Building a Social Music App With Phoenix LiveView

Fly.io has made its platform free for small Phoenix projects, allowing developers to build real-time collaboration features with ease. The company introduced a full-stack Phoenix reference app called "LiveBeats," which demonstrates how the framework can be used to quickly develop applications like turntable.fm. LiveView, a key feature of Phoenix, allows developers to create live and shared UIs without writing any JavaScript. It also supports concurrent upload processing, function components, and global deployment across regions. The platform aims to provide a seamless user experience by serving full-stack apps close to users for reduced latency and increased responsiveness.
