Scoop custom elixir manifest:

```elixir
{
    "homepage": "https://elixir-lang.org/",
    "version": "v1.12.0-rc.0",
    "depends": [
        "erlang",
        "vcredist2013"
    ],
    "url": "https://repo.hex.pm/builds/elixir/v1.12.0-rc.0-otp-23.zip",
    "hash": "3ed75a05fe5733b30e9cafa6f59b8591c43ff64eee12c8e5d27ddfb9e25bee73",
    "env_add_path": "bin",
    "checkver": {
        "github": "https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir"
    },
    "autoupdate": {
        "url": "https://repo.hex.pm/builds/elixir/v$version-otp-24.zip"
    }
}

```

install & uninsall with Scoop is a charme.  
But it doesn’t really help out of the box to use different Elixir vesions per project basis.

Teaking the scoop used shims which are added to path could probably be a fast way to change global used version. Same for Elixir & Erlang.
