What’s the best ground cover?

I have a space on the side of my house that is a fairly steep hill. Rather than cover it with grass that I would have to mow, I would prefer to plant some kind of “no maintenance” ground cover. Does English Ivy work best here or is there something better suited. This section of lawn is mostly shaded. What sunlight it does get is mostly in the morning.
