How to make a release for a system with erlang installed

Hello,

I am a bit confused with the release process with mix.
I want to deploy my release on a server with erlang installed, but when I run MIX_ENV=prod mix release I don’t know what files I should take, how to send it to my server. I love that it comes with all batteries included (start, stop, daemon etc..) but it seems to also package erlang with it. I don’t need to package erlang with it.

I build on a Mac system but I want to run it on a Linux one.

My dream is a zip/tgz file that I can unzip on my server, run a start command and just works with my installed erlang unix binary, since beam files do not depend on the undelying system.

Any idea ?
