Yeah Erlang idioms are what make Elixir so powerful, but you basically don't have to touch actual Erlang. I've messed around, just because I felt like I should have some appreciation for the work Erlang developers put in, but the Elixir wrappers are good enough it's almost never necessary. Even if you need an Erlang library, you're just calling the functions and the docs are usually pretty good.
