I wrote a custom bioinformatics pipeline (CLI) in Elixir the other week. Not a terrible experience. Being able to save annotations to a binary and unpickle using term_to_binary was amazing.
If that CLI tool integrates with a bigger ecosystem (like connect to a cluster and reuse data / services) that's already written in Elixir, then that would make it an even bigger no-brainer to use.
Also hi, haven't seen you active in ElixirForum in a long time.
