I tried julia three years ago, but version skew was a huge drag. Has the situtation improved on that front?

- BlackFingolfin 8y agoYes, the language was (intentionally) stabilized with 1.0. So version 1.1 (the current one) is fully compatible with that, and this will remain so for the whole 1.x series. And I expect that even 2.x won't be as bad (if at all) as the major changes that were made during the early evolution of the language.
- oxinabox 8y agoAmazingly, even packages have started to stablize. Even though a great many of them are on there own v0.x, they are both moving towards theire 1.0 releases, and being more careful about not breaking there v0.x releases.
- roywiggins 8y agoIt has since gone 1.0, so I assume it's better. I am just dipping my toes in right now though.
- ellisv 8y agoYes. The language is much more stable since 1.0 (intentionally). However some packages are still being updated.
