Django LiveView Frontend

Django LiveView Frontend is a set of JavaScript functions that are responsible form managing everything that a backend developer would do.

What elements does it manage?

• WebSocket connection.
• Events.
• Submit actions.
• Capture the responses from the backend and place the HTML in the indicated place.
• Form submission.
• History management.
• Show the page offline in case you lose your internet connection.

How does it work?

Events are manage by Stimulus, a JavaScript framework that allows you to create controllers that are responsible for managing a specific part of the DOM. The rest of the code is written in plain JavaScript.
