Completions in Elixir in VSCode are as good as anything if seen in intellij for Java, through that may be a low bar.

As for the burden of the mental model, I can’t really speak to that. In Elixir I usually try to think in data shapes or structures which can be matched on by function heads. I only think of types at the edges of the system.

ElixirLS developer here. Nice to hear that people like the autocompletion but comming from .net/java I think it still can do much better. It’s not very context aware and poorly handles code with parse errors

It always works well enough for my purposes.
