Among its superpowers you can find **********************

• Create SPAs without using APIs.
• Uses Django's template system to render the frontend (Without JavaScript).
• The logic is not split between the backend and the frontend, it all stays in Python.
• You can still use all of Django's native tools, such as its ORM, forms, plugins, etc.
• Everything is asynchronous by default.
• Don't learn anything new. If you know Python, you know how to use Django LiveView.
• All in real time.

System components communicate through realtime events, where events represent important actions. Every components can produce and consume actions, allowing asynchronous and decoupled communication.
