Releases: uNetworking/uWebSockets.js
v20.13.0
Http fixes and whitelisting Node.js 16
- Bumps uWS to v20.24.0
- While Node.js 16 performs worse than Node.js 18, it does not perform as catastrophically bad as Node.js 14. Therefore we do whitelist it again.
v20.12.0
Blacklist Node.js 14 and 16
- Enormous performance regressions in Node.js 16 and 14 introduced by Node.js maintainers, have caused an unacceptable 75% performance decrease in uWS.js. Therefore we are forced to reject these broken versions of Node.js until Node.js maintainers get their act together and start benchmarking their changes.
- Node.js 18.10 is known to perform reasonably well, and is kept whitelisted.
v20.11.0
Experimental HTTP/3 and much more
Updates uWS from v20.14.0 to v20.23.0 which brings many (stable) improvements. Please have a read over at https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets/releases for a more complete explanation of all the changes involved.
Other than these stable changes, all platforms now ship with (still experimental) HTTP/3 support enabled. It is known to work on Linux - macOS still has some missing pieces and Windows is entirely broken for now. You can try the H3lloWorld.js example as a starting point, even though there have been more visual demos presented.
HTTP/3 support in this release is to be considered entirely broken for any production purposes, see it more as a bonus coming along the (many) stable changes.
v20.10.0
v20.9.0
v20.8.0
v20.7.0
Node.js 18, LTS-only
With this release and going forwards we will support only LTS versions of Node.js. Every year one new LTS version will be added and one old will be dropped. This means we always support a rolling set of 3 LTS versions. This release supports 14, 16 and 18.
