## What it is
LiveBeats is a self-hosted music-sharing web application built with Elixir and Phoenix LiveView, letting users upload and play music together in real time. It serves as a reference/demo app from Fly.io showcasing Phoenix LiveView patterns.

## Use cases
- host a shared music listening app for a community
- run a self-hosted music upload and playback server
- learn Phoenix LiveView by studying a real production app
- deploy an Elixir web app on Fly.io
- listen to music together with friends in real time

## When to choose
- you want a ready-made collaborative music player you can self-host
- you want a well-structured example of Phoenix LiveView, file uploads, and OAuth in Elixir

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured music streaming service with licensing support
- you are not using Elixir/Phoenix and only want a drop-in media server like Jellyfin
- you need active feature development, as the project is mostly in maintenance
