Fireside Chat with LiveView Surface
summary
Surface is a LiveView component library that adds static property checks and a declarative public API so components declare required types and fail fast in the editor. It drives a new stateless component API now merged into LiveView and a structural template parser (HEEx/higgs) that detects unmatched tags and attribute errors at compile time. Early adopters report production use, faster iteration, available generators, and clear IDE warnings that prevent simple runtime bugs.
