We talk with Chris McCord about the Phoenix LiveView 0.15.0 release which includes uploads! Chris explains the background on the release and his video showing it off. He shares his go-to stack when starting a new Phoenix project (HINT it includes TailwindCSS). We talk about current gaps in the tooling and where things might go from here in both the short and long term. A great visit with lots of insights!
