Switch from asdf to mise (formerly called rtx) to install dependencies in .tool-versions
Overview
@pedropombeiro mentioned rtx
in #dev_tip_of_the_day
as an alternative to asdf
that is not based on shims. rtx
focuses on performance and backwards compatibility with asdf
, so there wouldn't need to be any changes to the existing setup. See the benchmarks provided by @pedropombeiro below:
Another edifying benchmark:
Tasks
-
Update CI jobs to use mise
to test the new configuration. -
Set mise.enabled
totrue
in the default settings. -
Ensure mise
updates automatically when a new version is released. -
Update documentation to reflect the switch from asdf
tomise
.
