# Elixir v1.18.4 released

**[Elixir Forum](https://daily.dev/sources/elixirforum)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Elixir v1.18.4 has been released with initial support for Erlang/OTP 28, which is binary compatible with the precompiled OTP 27 build. A notable breaking change in OTP 28 requires regexes defined in module attributes to be moved inline. Enhancements include a new IEx.Helpers.process_info/1 function, Mix --no-listeners option for compile and run commands, and per-OTP-release Hex/Rebar installation. Bug fixes address trace event emission for various Kernel callbacks, map union optimization, crash fixes for nested bitstrings and struct defaults, and regex recompilation for OTP 28 compatibility.
