What environment issues were you running into? We use mise/asdf to manage which version of erlang/elixir our project is using, and only needed to containerize our database to ease its maintenance.

For the dev experience, I'd also recommend NextLS/Lexical over Elixir LS until the official one is out. It should compile much faster for nontrivial Elixir applications.
