Say, at some point you generated your Phoenix app with mix phx.new my_app, but later decided to change its name to "new_app".

See this little memo as a checklist to avoid possible pitfalls.

1. Project-wide search and replace

Use your favorite text editor to search and replace as follows (use case-sensitive search for minimizing chances for a mistake):

MyApp -> NewApp
my_app -> new_app

Problem: accidentally pressing 'Esc' when editing a form in a "standard" LiveView modal dialog will discard all edits.

Proposed solution: Make the modal show a confirmation window on close when there have been changes on the form.

LiveView v0.20 was used.

I switched to Dvorak about 9 years ago. It was my 3rd touch-typed layout, after ЙЦУКЕН and QWERTY, both of which I was using daily. Now, that I look back, I think choosing Dvorak wasn't ideal: while it's been a huge relief after QWERTY (this ubiquitous finger twister), Dvorak showed certain drawbacks I should have noticed from the very beginning. A good example would be the frequent "sl" combination (slow, sleep, slide, etc), which is a same-finger combination for the right pinkie. Recently, some extra research showed it must have always been Colemak.

Learning a new layout is akin to learning a musical instrument: the cognitive effort required for deliberate practice feels pleasingly mind stretching. So, I decided to switch again. Below this paragraph I'll be posting everything I have typed so far during my Colemak practice, including some report on the progress - for what it's worth. Minor editing here and there is possible for readability. Let's see how much typing it takes to get back to a reasonable spee
