Phoenix equivalent of Rails ActionCable?

I’m reading the Rails ActionCable docs, and I find it overly complex with too many entities and concepts for a pub/sub architecture. The implementation also bugs me, relying heavily on a magical and under-documented API.

Does anyone have a link to Phoenix equivalents for simple use cases like these ActionCable examples - who’s-online and server-to-client notifications?

I would say it is replaced by websocket and channels in Elixir…

Coupled with Presence.
