I opened an issue here , but maybe this is a better place to ask. Basically, my company is very strict about what they approve to be installed on our computers. Right now, if we request to install Julia, they remote into our computers and download the binary from julialang.org . That’s fine enough. Ho…

I think it’s more that in order to function as an “officially recommended” method of installing Julia, it needs to be rock-solid, which is quite a different requirement than simply stable. Any issue with installing reflects very badly on the language itself and you want to avoid that.

Alright! Thanks for the context. @oheil I originally thought the bugs people talked about in that thread were about the alternative installer paths, but that the MS Store version was stable. But after looking at it again, am I reading it correctly that Juliaup itself is not quite ready for producti…

[image] mrufsvold: not quite ready for production? Seems so, but it is already usable. Means, what is implemented works so far quite well, at least for me in my environment.

It’s not yet ready to be the recommended way but it wants to be in the near future.
