 ## Introduction {#julia-introduction}
 
-Nixpkgs includes Julia as the `julia` derivation. You can get specific versions by looking at the other `julia*` top-level derivations available. For example, `julia_19` corresponds to Julia 1.9. We also provide the current stable version as `julia-stable`, and an LTS version as `julia-lts`.

-Occasionally, a Julia version has been too difficult to build from source in Nixpkgs and has been fetched prebuilt instead. These Julia versions are differentiated with the `*-bin` suffix; for example, `julia-stable-bin`.

 ## julia.withPackages {#julia-withpackage}
 
 The basic Julia derivations only provide the built-in packages that come with the distribution.
 
-You can build Julia environments with additional packages using the `julia.withPackages` command. This function accepts a list of strings representing Julia package names. For example, you can build a Julia environment with the `Plots` package as follows.

 * `precompile`: Whether to run `Pkg.precompile()` on the generated environment.
 
-  This will make package imports faster, but may fail in some cases. For example, there is an upstream issue with `Gtk.jl` that prevents precompilation from working in the Nix build sandbox, because the precompiled code tries to access a display. Packages like this will work fine if you build with `precompile=false`, and then precompile as needed once your environment starts. Defaults to `true`.
