Phoenix runs a SolidJS SPA

## Overview:
PhxSolid is an impressive framework that facilitates the integration of clustered containers within a Phoenix web application, delivering a seamless experience with an embedded SolidJS single-page application (SPA). Enhanced with a PostgreSQL database and linked to a Livebook node, it provides robust monitoring of web app nodes and real-time data sharing through authenticated websockets. This architecture not only streamlines the communication between the backend and SPA but also demonstrates a modern approach to hybrid web app development.

The project outlines practical methods for incorporating SolidJS into a Phoenix environment, offering flexibility through two different approaches for embedding SPAs. Users can choose to render the SPA either with hooks in LiveView or as a separate page, depending on their navigation needs. With the lightweight nature of SolidJS and its performance advantages over traditional frameworks, this setup caters exceptionally well to developers looking for efficiency and speed in their applications.

## Features:
- **Real-Time Data Handling:** The incorporation of authenticated websockets allows for instant communication of backend updates, enhancing user experience with real-time information sharing.
  
- **Flexible Integration Options:** Offers two methods to include SolidJS in Phoenix apps: using hooks in LiveView or through separate controller-rendered pages for greater flexibility based on navigation requirements. 

- **Efficient Asset Compilation:** Utilizes a custom Esbuild configuration that employs a SolidJS plugin, ensuring quick compilation of assets while maintaining optimal performance. 

- **Seamless Database Connection:** Shares the same Docker network for the cluster, allowing easy database access without exposing the PostgreSQL directly, promoting security and efficiency.

- **User Authentication Support:** Incorporates multiple authentication methods, including Google One Tap and Magic link login, to manage user sessions effectively within the SPA.

- **Tailwind Configuration Compatibility:** Provides guidance on integrating Tailwind CSS with Phoenix, ensuring a modern and responsive design for SPAs.

- **ESM Code Splitting:** Implements code splitting features for improved performance, making use of modern ECMAScript modules for a modular approach to development.
