Well you yourself mentioned being hesitant to add a library that could likely help you solely based on it being in Erlang.

Erlang has many useful libraries, it's been around far longer. If everything has to be wrapped by Elixir to be useful, well that seems like a pretty significant limitation.

I didn’t say it has to be wrapped by elixir to be “useful”, but after having been in debugging hell with an erlang OIDC library a couple years ago, I’ve been burned and won’t touch native erlang libraries unless there’s no other choice.

That’s not a criticism of erlang. That’s a comment on my personal limitations of time.
