Modern BEAM and Erlang tools from the Erlangsters community.
We develop two distributions around one virtual machine:
- BEAM/Erlang provides the shared virtual machine, modern command-line tools, libraries, and C embedding SDK.
- Erlangsters Erlang/OTP is an independent Erlang/OTP distribution built against the installed BEAM/Erlang SDK.
BEAM Packages provides package management, build tooling, and the package format.
We're also preparing dedicated release builders and GitHub Actions for installing both distributions in workflows.
| Distribution | Release builds | Workflow setup |
|---|---|---|
| BEAM/Erlang | build-beam-erlang | setup-beam-erlang |
| Erlangsters Erlang/OTP | build-erlang-otp | setup-erlang-otp |
Development is ongoing. The distribution repositories document current capabilities and compatibility status.
