Elixir is like if Erlang and Ruby had a child. It's a functional languages, so I guess there's a bit of a curve there. Plus you get stuff like macros, which are incredible, but I thought was some kind of voodoo magic the first time I encountered them.
There's a pretty decent tutorial on the elixir site, and the phoenix site if you want to learn.
As for the learning curve, I didn't struggle with it for very long at all, but your results may vary.
