When Elixir first came, I think like you.
Eventually I try to do something with Elixir. Then suddenly everything is so good.
The whole experience how I create a new project with `mix`, get dependencies, build, compile, run `repl` was so much better than rebar.
To me, `mix` is the greatest tool. I don't see something like mix in other languages, except Clojure and Leiningen.
The community around Elixir is awesome too. It's very different from Erlang type. I have a hard time to find library and stuff in Erlang before. I don't have a central place to look for that. Elixir brough me hex.pm.
I personally like Erlang syntax, I think it's short and concise. But I end up like Elixir much more than Erlang.
