I am wondering whether elixirscript is still been maintained. This looks like a cool project to bring to life again, and I am willing to put some effort on it!
Erlscripten appeared a few weeks ago, which transpiles Erlang into JS.

I naively imagine going via that route “isn’t too difficult” might be “less difficult” (Elixir → Erlang → JS), or more maybe more appropriately Erlang → js_beam ← Elixir.
Not quite the same though, depends on whether you want “to run elixir code (BEAM, OTP, GenServer, etc)” or “write code that looks like elixir (Enum.map…, |>, etc)” which was more what Elixirscript was doing afaik…
