On “What can I do with elixir? Where does it fit best when using it to build software?”
On anything that you need to be fault tolerant and is mission critical. And anything that needs concurrency or needs to be distributed and concurrent.
Pretty much same as erlang, so watch this short history of what erlang is meant for
