I’ve continued implementing the profile page with LV and I’m currently this far:
As you can see, all the graphs are done except for those that were made with Chart.js in the existing frontend. I will see about converting them to Contex.
The setup is the same as I described earlier, with Graphs, DataProviders, and SharedData, but some details have evolved a bit. Turns out I don’t lose change tracking if I convert all of my child components to live components and I can still use my renderer tricks in Graphs.Catalogue and the graph modules themselves.
Currently my live update size is around 5 KB for any change. That’s a lot of data so I will see about how to minimize it but it’s a lot better than the 60 KB of the initial implementation. Biggest change was adding id tags in all the lists.
With the UserInfo graph, for some reason it always updates all the data even though the only changed data is in the numbers. The username or avatar can’t change, but they are always re-rendered. Don’t know why that is, let me know if you have any ideas.
All in all it’s going quite well. 
Looking into Contex next.
Oh, and the code is still here: lib/code_stats_web/profile_live · wip/live-view · CodeStats / code-stats · GitLab
