I’ve poked around a little the site. There’s a lot of “this is awesome” advertising.
I still don’t know where this fits with Phoenix/liveview/bandit. Does it replace them? Why and to what end? Am I to use it as a companion? For which parts?
In other words, which problems do I need to have to appreciate how cool this is?

I’m excited to announce Hologram v0.5.0, a major evolution of the full-stack Elixir web framework! This release brings massive performance improvements - we’re talking execution times improved from milliseconds to microseconds in core client-side operations, making it fast enough for real-time interactions like mouse move events.
Key highlights:
- Complete bitstring rewrite with ~50x rendering speed improvements!
Check out the SVG Drawing Demo that showcases smooth, responsive drawing using the new pointer move events - it really demonstrates the performance leap!

With over 950 commits since v0.4.0, this release delivers significant architectural enhancements while maintaining the unique developer experience that makes Hologram special.
Special thanks to my current GitHub sponsors: @D4no0, @Lucassifoni, and @sodapopcan!

Every time I think of elixir and its vm I think of the robot character from slay the spire
