Just wanted to put in a +1 for going with Rustler precompiled and increasing the minimum required Elixir version. I’d love to be able to eliminate the rust dependency.

Supporting Rustler precompilation is definitely the direction I’m leaning.
Things are a bit busy for me right now, but I will be working on that when I have availability.

In production when whole deployment process definitely doesn’t take few seconds? Sure! But just think about tiny Elixir scripts (like simple scrapers) with something like 50-100 LOC. A tiny Elixir script designed for quickly doing small tasks should not “setup environment” or do literally any bigger job.

Release v0.17.0
This release adds NIF precompilation using rustler_precompiled (a big thank you to @philss for all his work on that).
This also changes the supported versions drastically, mostly as a result of wanting to keep up with Rustler, which is now supporting 3 versions of Elixir and Erlang/OTP back.
