# Current status
28+
29+
Diffractor is currently supported on Julia v1.10+.
30+
While the best performance is generally achieved by running on Julia nightly due to constant compiler improvements, the current release of Diffractor is guaranteed to work on Julia v1.10.

## Current Status: Forward-Mode
2933
Currently, forward-mode is the only fully-functional mode and is now shipping in some closed source products.
3034
It is in a position to compete with [ForwardDiff.jl](https://github.com/JuliaDiff/TaylorDiff.jl), and with [TaylorDiff.jl](https://github.com/JuliaDiff/TaylorDiff.jl).

It is not as battle-tested as ForwardDiff.jl, but it has several advantages.

It is not as battle-tested as ForwardDiff.jl, but it has several advantages:
3236
Primarily, as it is not an operator overloading AD, it frees one from the need to relax type-constants and worry about the types of containers.
3337
Furthermore, Like TaylorDiff.jl, it supports Taylor series based computation of higher order derviatives.
3438
It directly and efficiently uses ChainRules.jl's `frules`, no need for a wrapper macro to import them etc.

One limitation over ForwardDiff.jl is a lack of chunking support, to pushforward multiple bases at once.

## Current Status: Reverse-Mode
4243
Improved reverse mode support is planned for a future release.
4344
While reverse mode was originally implemented and working, it has been stripped out until such a time as it can be properly implemented on top of new Julia compiler changes.<br>
