Regarding portability, I recently came across this project: https://github.com/spawnfest/bakeware

I haven’t gotten around to actually trying it myself, but it advertises that it can compile Elixir projects into a single binary you can copy, paste & run (on Linux & MacOS). It’s not the greatest solution, and the mentioned ~0.5s startup time doesn’t make it great for cli tools when compared to Go/Rust/C.

I’m mostly just happy to see there are people out there trying to make Elixir/Erlang easier to use, as much as I love the language, some of the tooling and deployment methods (releases) make me groan.
