What else should you use for huge complex web apps?

Keep the huge, complex business logic on the server whenever possible.

That doesn't work for webapps that are effectively entirely based on client side reactivity like Figma, though the list of projects that need to work like that is extremely low. Even for those style of apps I do wonder how far something like Phoenix LiveView might go towards the end goal.
