Julia version 1.14.0-beta1, the first beta pre-release in the upcoming 1.14 series of releases, is now available. Check out the [NEWS.md](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/v1.14.0-beta1/NEWS.md) file to see what will be new in 1.14. Binaries are available via [Juliaup](https://github.com/JuliaLang/juliaup) (`juliaup add 1.14`) and in the upcoming release section of [https://julialang.org/downloads/manual-downloads/](https://julialang.org/downloads/manual-downloads/) for macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), Windows (x86 and x86-64), glibc Linux (x86, x86-64, AArch64, RISC-V), and FreeBSD (x86-64).

As a beta version, 1.14.0-beta1 should **not** be considered production-ready. Rather, it’s intended to give users, especially package developers, a chance to try out their code with 1.14.0 prior to a full release. See [here](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/compare/v1.14.0-alpha2...v1.14.0-beta1) for a list of commits included since 1.14.0-alpha2.

On [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/julia-actions/setup-julia), use `~1.14.0-0` or similar to test against it (see the `setup-julia` action’s README for options).

### Optimized and assertion builds (experimental)

As with the alpha releases, this release also comes in optimized (`+opt`) and assertion (`+assert`) build variants; see the [alpha1 announcement](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/140136) for details. With Juliaup:

```julia-auto
juliaup add 1.14+opt
juliaup add 1.14+assert

```

Installing variants requires Juliaup 1.23 or newer, which is now a regular Juliaup release (`juliaup self update`). If you try the optimized build, please report anything that behaves differently from the standard build, mentioning the variant in the issue.
