(ArgumentError) unknown application: :bakeware

Background

When trying to execute mix release on a Windows 11 machine for a Phoenix project I get the following error:

* assembling market_manager-2.1.5 on MIX_ENV=prod
* using config/runtime.exs to configure the release at runtime
←[32m* assembling←[39m bakeware market_manager

** (ArgumentError) unknown application: :bakeware

    (mix 1.15.4) lib/mix/cli.ex:92: Mix.CLI.run_task/2

I am using PowerShell with Admin privileges and I have set the following env variables:

$env:CC="gcc"
$env:MAKE="make"
$env:MIX_ENV="prod"

I have installed all the dependencies via choco with choco install -y zstandard make mingw.

Further, here are my system settings:

Edition	Windows 11 Home
Version	22H2
OS build	22621.2283
Experience	Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22662.1000.0

I am using: {:bakeware, "~> 0.2.4"} with Elixir 1.15.4 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 24)

I develop for windows users, so I can’t use Linux here.

Question

Why cant I make bakeware work?

It unfortunately seems that, at the time of writing this post, Bakeware is not being actively maintained. The successor appears to be Burrito:

However that does not work for windows either:

So I had to go with an alternative, in order to achieve a Windows release. This alternative solution uses Windows shortcuts and seems to work as a short term solution for anyone trying to have an easy launcher for Elixir applications in Windows systems:

If you are from the future and the official Bakeware issue post found a positive resolution, do feel free to update this thread. For the time being however, I am closing this.

For debugging purposes you could make a fresh project in elixir 1.10 and try to release it using bakeware. If it works, try the same in 1.15.
