Release notes

JASP 0.9

Released June 20th, 2018.

This version adds filtering, a data library, an option to copy the LaTeX code of tables, several non-parametric tests, and much more. For a complete list of all new features and bugfixes in JASP 0.9, see the release notes below.

Microsoft Windows

Download JASP for Microsoft Windows Download a Pre-Installed Version of JASP

Mac OS X

Download JASP for Mac OS X

Installation Notes: On OS X, please have XQuartz installed before commencing installation of JASP.

Having trouble installing JASP under Mac OS X? Take a look at our installation guide.

Linux

JASP is now available for virtually all Linux distributions through the widely available flatpak. This is most likely already installed on your distribution and otherwise can be  easily acquired through your package manager. After you have installed flatpak enter the following command into a terminal:

flatpak install http://static.jasp-stats.org/flatpak/JASP.flatpakref

It might not be automatically added to the application menu in some cases (ubuntu for instance) and there you can start JASP by running:

flatpak run org.jasp.JASP

After you have installed JASP from flatpak any new releases/updates can be installed by running:

flatpak update

Should the flatpak install fail to work for some reason you can always contact us for support or you can try to build JASP from source, see: https://github.com/jasp-stats/jasp-desktop.

Installation Notes: Installation under Ubuntu 17.10+ can also be handled through a PPA. Instructions can be found in our installation guide.
