It unfortunately seems that, at the time of writing this post, Bakeware is not being actively maintained. The successor appears to be Burrito: - [\* (ArgumentError) unknown application: :bakeware · Issue #136 · bake-bake-bake/bakeware · GitHub](https://github.com/bake-bake-bake/bakeware/issues/136) However that does not work for windows either: - [Does not create release for Windows-11 · Issue #111 · burrito-elixir/burrito · GitHub](https://github.com/burrito-elixir/burrito/issues/111) So I had to go with an alternative, in order to achieve a Windows release. This alternative solution uses Windows shortcuts and seems to work as a short term solution for anyone trying to have an easy launcher for Elixir applications in Windows systems: - [How to start Phoenix application without showing terminal in Windows 11 - #8 by Fl4m3Ph03n1x - Questions / Help - Elixir Programming Language Forum](https://elixirforum.com/t/how-to-start-phoenix-application-without-showing-terminal-in-windows-11/58893/8?u=fl4m3ph03n1x) If you are from the future and the official Bakeware issue post found a positive resolution, do feel free to update this thread. For the time being however, I am closing this. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.devtalk.com/t/argumenterror-unknown-application-bakeware/127415)._
