Is Liveview Native realistic in 2025?

I have been following Liveview Native for a while but I’m asking if anybody has real world experience of making a Liveview Native app and deploying it to the masses.

Is it ready or not Today is basically my question.

I need to choose a mobile framework and prefer to stay in the Elixir world but I feel I am risking a lot by choosing Liveview Native Today, I would like to have some more experienced opinions please.

Thanks!!!

You should ask the LVN core team. I am positive there is real-world usage, as making a framework like this is extremely complex and takes a lot of effort.

Check this talk by Brian Cardarella some 4 months ago. 3 years in the making, they say now it’s ready. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9D9LYRKqkhM

Note: we’re closely watching and considering it too.

Can anyone compare / contrast LVN with Hotwire Native for Rails developers? Do they use similar technical approaches? How do they compare maturity-wise?

If you (or anyone else) fancies a copy of the book to check for yourself there is currently a Spotlight on the author over at Devtalk where you can win a copy of the book:
