Installation

Versions

• Latest stable: 0.7.3
• Latest preview: 0.8.0-pre7

Previews contain the newest features, such as TxFlow, TxStream, TxPlan and verified data structures, and their APIs may change before the stable release. See what’s new and the release notes.

The stable release needs Java 11 or later, and previews need Java 17 or later.

Throughout this site, replace <version> or {version} in a dependency with the version you’re using. Pages for preview features need the latest preview.
