What is Phoenix framework good for?

Phoenix is a back-end framework written in Elixir (a functional programming language that runs on Erlang virtual machine). It is used to create modern web applications that are scalable and maintainable at the same time.

Is Phoenix framework fast?

For any company that currently uses Ruby on Rails, Phoenix Framework should be on your radar, because it adds considerable performance gains. To top that off, Phoenix makes it incredibly fast to build web applications.

Phoenix is a web framework written in the Elixir programming language. It has nothing to do with laravel or its elixir.

Laravel's elixir is a node.js app that is built on top of gulp to provide an easy way to manage your client-side assets (minification/concatentation/transformation/versioning etc.)

The two have absolutely nothing in common.
