Almost everyone should be downloading and using the latest stable release of Julia. Great care is taken not to break compatibility with older Julia versions, so older code should continue to work with the latest stable Julia release. You should only be using the long-term support (LTS) version of Julia if you work at an organization where implementing or certifying upgrades is prohibitively expensive and there is no need for new language features or packages. See this description of "Risk Personas" for more detail on who should be using what versions of Julia based on their risk tolerance.

Note: Julia comes with a built-in package manager which downloads and installs packages from the Internet. In doing so, it necessarily reveals your public IP address to any server you connect to, and service providers may log your IP address. In Julia versions 1.5 and higher, by default the package manager connects to https://pkg.julialang.org, a free public service operated by the Julia project to serve open source package resources to Julia users. This service retains IP address logs for up to 30 days.

We're currently testing release candidates for Julia v1.7, an upcoming minor release in the 1.x series of releases. We encourage developers and interested users to try it out and report any issues they encounter. As a prerelease, it should not be considered production-ready; it's intended to give users a chance to try out 1.7 with their code before the full release.

Download verification

All Julia binary releases are cryptographically secured using the traditional methods on each platform. macOS and Windows releases are codesigned with certificates that are verified by the operating system during installation. Linux and source tarballs are signed with GPG using this key.
