Why the Elixir language has great potential

I remember reading Phoenix had templating (eg HTML). Is Erlang/Elixir good for this? Or is it something better suited for NIF?

Phoenix uses IO lists for very efficient templating.

Thanks. This helps a lot even though I don't use Elixir or Erlang.

Elixir itself ships with a module called EEx that should feel very familiar if you've used Ruby's ERB. There's also a HAML rendering library (Calliope) among others.
