0.25.2 / 2020-05-20

Fixed

• Bumped Node.js version in templates.

0.25.1 / 2020-05-20

Changed

• Don't include docs/ in the npm package.

0.25.0 / 2020-05-20

Breaking Changes

• Node.js 8 is no longer supported; Node.js 10.13.0 is now the minimum required version, as per many of nwb's dependencies.

Browser Support

• Removed default polyfills for Promise, fetch() and Object.assign() and deprecated polyfill config.

  If you need to support older browsers, you will now need to include the necessary polyfills in your app - see the new Browser Support docs for details on polyfilling and suggested modules it's to provide them.

  If this change affects your app, a quick fix is to use react-app-polyfill's IE11 polyfill, which is equivalent to what nwb's default polyfill used to be:

  import 'react-app-polyfill/ie11'

• For apps and quick commands, @babel/preset-env is now configured to only transpile the necessary ECMAScript 2015+ for supported browsers.

  When running a development server, this defaults to the most recent version of Chrome, Firefox or Safari, so you may need to adjust browsers.development config if you're using an out of date browser and you will need to adjust it if you're developing with an older browser supported by your app.

• Default browser configuration for Autoprefixer when building an app has changed from >1%, last 4 versions, Firefox ESR, not ie < 9 to >0.2%, not dead, not op_mini all.

  When running a development server, the default browser configuration has changed to last 1 chrome version, last 1 firefox version, last 1 safari version.

Configuration

• Deprecated using a string for webpack.autoprefixer config to configure supported browsers - this will no longer do anything and should be moved to the new browsers config.

• Removed support for babel.stage and webpack.uglify config deprecated in nwb v0.24.0.

• copy-webpack-plugin v6.0.0 has breaking changes to its options which you should read if you're using webpack.copy config.

  In particular, the ignore option in a copy pattern must now be put inside the new globOptions option.

Dependencies

• file-loader v6.0.0 changed its default hashing algorithm so hashes in output filenames will change after updating to this release, even if their contents haven't changed.

Added

• Added top-level browsers config to configure supported browsers. This supports using separate browserslist queries for development and production.

0.24.5 / 2020-03-24

Changed

• html-webpack-plugin got a major version bump to v4

  • The plugin nwb uses to inline the webpack runtime chunk was rewritten to use v4's new hooks.

Fixed

0.24.4 / 2020-03-21

Added

• Added babel.react config to configure @babel/preset-react options, allowing you to opt-in to using the new automatic runtime which was added in Babel v7.9.0.

  For convenience, you can just configure the runtime name if you want to try it with the experimental version of React:

  module.exports = {
    babel: {
      react: 'automatic'
    }
  }

Changed

• Updated to Babel v7.9.0.

Changed

0.24.2 / 2020-03-12

0.24.0 / 2020-03-08 ♀️

Breaking Changes

• Node.js 6 is no longer supported; Node.js 8.9.0 is now the minimum required version, as per many of nwb's dependencies.

• Updated to Babel 7

  • babel.runtime config no longer accepts a String to enable an additional, named feature.

    Pass an Object with plugin options instead.

  • Support for tests in *-test.js files has been removed, as @babel-core no longer supports pattern matching them to ignore them when co-located in src/.

    Rename these to *.test.js instead.

• Dropped support for the old --no-hmre alias to disable Hot Module Replacement, just use --no-hmr instead.

• Updated Preact config for Preact X.

• Dependencies with (documented) breaking changes:

  • copy-webpack-plugin@5.0.0
  • css-loader@3.0.0
  • file-loader@4.0.0
  • karma@4.0.0
  • mocha@6.0.0

Added

• Added babel.proposals config to configure use of Babel's proposal plugins.
• Added an en property to webpack.html config to set the document language when using nwb's default HTML template [#520] [Muhnad]

Fixed

• Fix creation of an extra directory when creating a scoped component's UMD build [#513] [rrapiteanu]

Changed

• React Refresh Webpack Plugin is now used to enable Fast Refresh for React apps, as babel-plugin-react-transform is deprecated and doesn't support Babel 7.
• Replaced use of UglifyJsPlugin with TerserWebpackPlugin.
• React compatibility is now always configured for Preact apps, as preact/compat is now part of the preact module.

Deprecated

• Deprecated babel.stage config, as Babel's stage-X presets were/are being removed in Babel 7 - if you provide it, nwb will warn you and enable Babel proposal plugins equivalent to the current stage they're at.

  Use babel.proposals config instead if you want to toggle some or all additional proposal plugins on.

• Deprecated webpack.uglify config, which has been renamed to webpack.terser.

• Autoprefixer renamed its browsers option to overrideBrowserslist, so you will get deprecation warnings if you were using {browsers: ...} in webpack.autoprefixer config.
