Oh, the travel router trick. As a techie with too many devices, plus family, you use the travel router to buy the Internet package and then everyone else associates to the travel router and you don’t have to pay for Internet access six different times.
A simple BUY button - take away all the mess for me as "end-user" who just want a board (I don't want to spend hours of BOM files, jlpcb, soldout parts etc.) - take away the mess for the creator of building a community around a design, monetize it, etc etc.
ElixirDesktop renders a webview/browser, in that way it's similar to electron - but using the BEAM instead of nodejs..
Some day it may make more than sense to have a local BEAM instance on the device with LiveView Native running on the local BEAM, for true offline, and zero lag performance - and then that BEAM instance can always connect to a remote server, via phoenix channels or similar for it's data management/syncing..
