## Simple cross platform Julia installer

Please also consider using [JuliaUp](https://github.com/JuliaLang/juliaup), especially for Windows. See comparison at the bottom of this file.

Note: this is a Julia package that requires Julia 1.0 or higher to run. If you would like to install Julia and don't have at least Julia 1.0 installed already, please visit https://julialang.org/downloads.
