Using a external ui Javascript Framework. Does this make sense?

Hello Everybody,

I am in “love with Phoenix Framework”. After the first bloody steps, I feel me comfortable and see many many advantages in the use of this beautiful framework. Now I think to migrate/realize an another project of mine with Phoenix/Elixir. BUT! I also love w2ui (https://w2ui.com/web/). It is an also beautiful framework but renders most of the things in Javascript, which means, it uses a different approach. My problem is not, that I do not have no idea how to integrate that framework, but the question is, does it makes sense? I miss a UI framework, which can display widgets (like w2ui). Bootstrap, Tailwind, all these don’t fullfill my needs. What is your opinion? Or does anybody know a good AND OPEN SOURCE UI Framework, which works like w2ui with Widgets and uses the advantages of Phoenix? Or is it worth to (or does it make sense) to migrate some parts of w2ui to Phoenix, so that the server renders my pages?

Thank you very much!

regards,
Sven

You can use Phoenix as a JSON API, which is one way to use it with React/Vue/w2ui etc.
