I don't think it's just contexts' fault. I think it's also too much boilerplate that's needed to achieve basic stuff and LiveView not being part of the framework + its design with views and components being two different things. It's still the best stack on the planet if you asked me 🙃 (1/2)

Did contexts kill Phoenix? New blog post: arrowsmithlabs.com/blog/did-con...

I don't mind LiveView being outside Phoenix, but we urgently need multi-package search in hexdocs (mentioned few time by Jose that it's coming). I find contexts great, but that might be just scars from fat controllers, fat models, fat service objects, fat classes... fat... from Rails.

I also find them great because if I cannot come up with a good name, I do what docs suggest - plural version of schema, move on, revisit later when my domain is clearer. It's just a module.
