Dfx 0.29.0 promoted

Hello everyone, dfx 0.29.0 has been promoted. You can read the release notes here.

Before you install it, it is recommended to upgrade dfxvm to 1.0.2. See release notes here.
This is the version that supports installing the Linux/arm64 version of dfx.

You can update it by running:
dfxvm self update

After that you can update dfx with:
dfxvm update

The major updates are:

  • Native support for arm64 on Linux

  • Motoko update to 0.15.1, see the 0.15 release notes. This release has breaking changes, and the examples repository has been updated to reflect them.

  • Canister snapshots can now be uploaded and downloaded with dfx canister snapshot upload and dfx canister snapshot download. (Note that this feature is not yet available on mainnet.)
