Performance challenges with a React SPA created an opportunity to explore Liveview. After two days of exploration, we were convinced Liveview provided a path forward, and within a few weeks, we replaced our React SPA with Liveview.

This talk is the story of challenges we encountered with React while building Birdseye, a personal task aggregator and management tool, and how Liveview solved them.

In addition to the technical challenges we faced, we’ll discuss how patterns and conventions familiar to the React community will help React developers begin writing Liveview.

Liveview makes a compelling case to replace React in many products, so join me to explore the possibilities!
