I don't know of any. People are really just selecting for the underlying runtime. And Elixir and Gleam are better targets here.

Well, I’m doing a new erlang project at a large financial institution; there are a certain class of problems that are best solved by it. I don’t think elixir is a better target; erlang is overall a better language, once you get over the initial syntax.

Mostly our crud services or apis are better served by java or go tho.
