An update has been posted: [http://hogwarts.ucsd.edu/~pkrysl/shared/Portable\_Julia-1.6.zip](http://hogwarts.ucsd.edu/~pkrysl/shared/Portable_Julia-1.6.zip)

Julia 1.6 release candidate 1 is used. The newest VS code. The user’s system does not need to have Git installed: the portable version of it is included. All the user needs to do is to double-click a batch file: everything installs itself, and VS code pops up preconfigured for work with Julia. Thanks to Julia 1.6 the installation is much quicker than it used to be: 4 minutes flat till the editor comes up on my slowish laptop with Wi-Fi connection.

Works on Windows10 systems.
