See [the official website](https://elixir-lang.org/) for all up to date install instructions.\n\n![elixir-websetup](assets/screenshot.png)\n\n## Features\n\n* Downloads and installs the latest Elixir version, or another version the user selects\n* Offers to install Erlang and add the Erlang directory to the system's Path variable\n* Adds Elixir to the system's Path variable\n* Creates Start Menu shortcuts\n\n## Structure\n\nThe **offline installer** ([Elixir.iss](Elixir.iss)) packages a specific Elixir release to install, and also can append the system's Path variable appropriately.  This kind of installer is currently not distributed in binary form.\n\nThe **web installer** ([ElixirWeb.iss](ElixirWeb.iss)) is what's currently distributed (see [Releases](https://github.com/chyndman/elixir-windows-setup/releases)). The **web installer** itself does not install Elixir.  It packages the files necessary to download, compile, and run the **offline installer** for the selected Elixir release.  It also handles installing Erlang and adding it to the system's Path variable.\n\n### Offline Installation\n\nIf you need to install Elixir on a system without internet access, follow these steps:\n\n1. Install Erlang on to the system.\n2. On another system with internet access, run `elixir-websetup.exe`.\n3. When prompted, check the box for \"Defer installation (advanced)\" and uncheck all other options.\n4. Proceed with the installation wizard.  Once complete, `elixir-vX.Y.Z-setup.exe` will be placed in the same folder as `elixir-websetup.exe`.\n5. Use `elixir-vX.Y.Z-setup.exe` to install Elixir on to the system.  (Note: You may wish to uninstall previous versions of Elixir before doing this.)\n\n## Build Instructions\n\nFirst, download the Unicode version of Inno Setup (`isetup-X.Y.Z-unicode.exe` from [jrsoftware.org](http://www.jrsoftware.org/isdl.php#stable)) and install it, making sure to keep the \"Install Inno Setup Preprocessor\" checkbox checked when asked.  Then, clone this repo (`elixir-windows-setup`) to your system.\n\nTo build the **web installer**, open `elixir-windows-setup\\ElixirWeb.iss` in the Inno Setup Compiler and click \"Compile\" to build an installer in `elixir-windows-setup\\Output`.\n\nTo build the **offline installer** follow these steps:\n\n1. Extract Precompiled.zip of the desired [Elixir Release](https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/releases/) into `elixir-windows-setup\\elixir`\n2. Open `elixir-windows-setup\\Elixir.iss` in the Inno Setup Compiler.\n3. Click \"Compile\" to build an installer in `elixir-windows-setup\\Output`.\n\n## Acknowledgements\n\n#### [Inno Setup](http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php)\nCopyright (C) 1997-2013 Jordan Russell.
