Elm 0.19.1 and 0.19.0 released!

[NewsBot]

Elm 0.19.1 and 0.19.0 has been released.

The goal of 0.19.1 is to clean up the rough edges such that we have a really solid foundation for newcomers, professionals, scientists, etc. More info is available here:

• The Syntax Cliff
• Upgrading to 0.19.1

There are no language changes, so once you swap to "elm-version": "0.19.1" in your elm.json file, you should be able to proceed without any further code changes. You may run into a handful of bugfixes though. These are described in the upgrade docs above.

Install

If you are on Mac or Windows, you can use the installers to get everything set up easily.

If you are on Linux (or you need more control) you can download the binaries directly. They just contain the elm binary and you can put it wherever you like. Remember to update your PATH variable if necessary!

You can also use npm install elm --global to install on any of these platforms. It is grabbing the binaries listed here, so it is nothing too special. More information about it here.
