Yes, you can build fully server rendered web apps with Phoenix. You'd need HTML templates for that though, so you shouldn't use the --no-html option.

--no-webpack is deprecated as Phoenix uses esbuild now but see the docs: "--no-esbuild - do not include esbuild dependencies and assets. We do not recommend setting this option, unless for API only applications, as doing so requires you to manually add and track JavaScript dependencies"

Not sure I understand exactly what you mean, but yeah generally speaking. You really don't need JS beyond what any of the project generators give you for a tonne of use cases. A lot can be handled where you need by the LiveView.JS module. Phoenix without LiveView definitely doesn't need JS.

Yeah you're not the first to request this, it makes a lot of sense as a next step. So I can better understand the constraints, how much memory are we talking if you were to import all those files?

Oh, TIL Logic was not always an Apple product. Upload + download is possible right now but deeper integration with DAWs is on the roadmap. I’m going to create a native sidecar app that can turn your DAW into an input device for the browser to record from.

Thanks! Yeah it’s seemed like an obvious pairing for a while I think but the browser tech is finally making it possible.

Thanks mate!

Thanks! I agree. The existing players trying to take this to the browser are all going for a full replacement of native DAWs rather than to augment/supplement them like what I'm going for. Musicians _love_ their DAWs so I don't think that's the right play, at least not for now.
