Compared to v0.12, the installer:

  • Fetches Elixir release information from elixir-lang.org/releases.csv and presents the list of releases for the user to select for download and installation.

  • Includes a higher-resolution banner image. (I'd say it's now drop-dead gorgeous 😎)

Jumping from 0.12 to 0.50 represents that this installer version is now essentially feature-complete. The planned improvements which remain only serve to polish the installer experience, such as:

  • Including the download and installation of Erlang as an (optional) step in the setup process.
  • Honoring failure exit codes from external calls (ex. if the compiled offline installer fails or is cancelled, the web installer continues normally)
  • Fleshing out the release selection interface (such as a checkbox to filter out prereleases)
  • Replacing defaults for the installer icon and publisher information.
