[disclaimer - am an Elixir and Phoenix developer, and a Python developer, but only a little bit a Django developer] Django still has a bit more stuff out of the box or from the community. There are various pieces that you can use from scratch. For a lower complexity, simple web app if your team hasn't built their "usual needed bits" Django is probably going to give you more. Elixir/Phoenix is a much better platform that is going to help you more once you're out of the initial bring-up. E.g. they provide authentication templates but explicitly don't just hand you auth because they philosophically believe that it's too integrated with your app that "one size fits all" can ever work (I agree with this). Once you need to do backend work, it's just more Elixir rather than Unicorn etc.
