Sure! Basically, the idea is that rather than requests in JavaScript going through an API, each user connection is maintained by a lightweight process on the server (which Elixir can scale easily), and then interactions with the page are pushed as a diff via WebSockets and then magically merged into the DOM. Interactive pages, no JavaScript required. I'm still pretty new to it, but after learning the ropes it's seeming very productive, and most importantly, fun.
