As someone who used Devise multiple times and always ended up regretting said choice in the long term, I am actually glad there is no Devise for Phoenix.

In one day I can quickly get something up and running with Guardian and have full control over how my app does authentication. Password reset and confirmation are easily done with Phoenix.Token without a need to touch the database.

Also, authorisation is a breeze on Phoenix. Take a look at Canada: https://github.com/jarednorman/canada - and it is only 10 LOC.
