Compilation Error Float-16

[pvalette]

With the last version, we have the following error when we launch the application

My version of Elixir
iex -v

Hello.
Yes, it's related to Elixir and Erlang OTP version.
OTP24 brings new improvements such as encoding float with 16bits, so if you update Elixir to 1.12 and OTP 24, you should not have this issue.

But we will probably update this to avoid dealing with float, which may reduce the errors due to version and simplifying the encoding.

In any case, we will update the README to matches the right requirements for Elixir.

Thanks for the report.
