Correct, though it’s best domain is most things related to highly concurrent and parallel I/O work.
Like I’ve written an IRC/Discord bot in it, which is a good use-case for it.
I’ve written game server, management software, and embedded server management services in the Erlang side of things over the years, as well as more.
I have also written a lot of web things in it too though (mostly Erlang, but my Elixir code is catching up).
