Introduction

beamruntime is also a tarball, self-installed and fuly relocated. Based on the same idea from beamtools. But targeting runtime execution and not for development.

note

A deep introspection for beamruntime is available at beamruntime blog post

It provides the following components:

  • Erlang Some extra applications are possible to be enabled for Erlang/OTP but beamruntime disables them. So, with beamruntime there is no support for:
    • wx
    • SCTP sockets
    • odbc
  • Elixir

As said before beamruntime targets the execution of Erlang/Elixir applications without worry about having Erlang/Elixir installed on linux target distribution.
