Elixir Pack: Embed a complete Elixir OTP runtime directly in your iOS app

This is another extraction from the project that I discussed in this HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44651539#44652356

tldr; we're building a headless browser in Elixir that will embed on device, communicate to the native 1st class rendering engine (i.e. SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose, WinUI3, etc...) via disterl, and allow for web-like ergonomics to build truly native SSR applications.

The README for Elixir Pack is a bit focused on the LiveView Native project but that documentation will soon be updated to remove mention of it.

Can you explain a bit of the workflow you expect for offline support?

Like would I have one set of LiveViews that run on device and a database wrapper that handles online vs offline queries? Do you envision all view code running on device then?

Either way, super cool to see!
