Would be great for reviving LiveView Native. Perhaps Dockyard / Brian Carderella might be interested.
Not exactly that, but check out Mob: https://github.com/GenericJam/mob It's an Elixir framework for cross-platform mobile apps — has a LiveView-like API and a React Native-like native UI layer. I'm working on a couple of apps with it, and so far it's awesome!
We're in an interesting time where my framework/stack choice is now much less dictated by existing engineer expertise and more about fundamental capabilities in the framework and stack themselves. I ended up building an agent orchestrator in Elixir and Phoenix, not because I love working in Elixir/Phoenix (I do, but I just don't write code by hand anymore), but because the BEAM/OTP capabilities genuinely worked more…
Did you use something like Jido or roll your own out of curiosity?

I no longer try to build everything around my choice of language.

I'm on the opposite side of this. With LLMs, I no longer feel the need to use crazy frontend frameworks and abstractions. I'm back to building static HTML with minimal JS (and ideally no build step). Instead of using Tauri/Wails for GUI apps, I just use Swift. I no longer try to build everything around my choice of language.
The things people do to not use web technologies.

Otherwise it's a really cool project
The only thing that's stopping me from trying this currently is file uploads. Otherwise it's a really cool project
