NW.js v0.113.0 Released with Chromium 150

[Kevin Fan]

We are pleased to announce NW 0.113.0 with Chromium 150.

In NW v0.113, Chromium 150 contains the usual under-the-hood performance and stability tweaks, but there are also some cool new features to explore. It supports the CSS text-fit property for automatically scaling font size to fill a container, URL request modifiers (cross-origin(), integrity(), referrer-policy()) in the url() function, media element pseudo-classes such as :playing, :paused, and :muted for styling <audio> and <video>, and programmatic scroll promises that resolve when a smooth scroll completes. Chromium's IndexedDB is now also built on a SQLite backend for better reliability and performance. Please check upstream release notes for details. For a complete list of all features (including experimental features) in this release, see the Chrome 150 milestone hotlist.

We've made the 0.113 branch ready soon after Chromium beta bumps to 150. Thanks to the testers for their valuable feedback and bug reports. We've been working on 2 branches simultaneously: a released branch on the current Chromium stable and a beta branch on Chromium beta.

Best regards, NW.js maintainers

Hey Kevin,

Thanks for the release update, I tried to test the bug https://github.com/nwjs/nw.js/issues/8342  on this release, however it is not working.

Am I missing anything e.g. any configuration which i need to enable. I am validating it with the same configuration which I used in v0.86.0 (the working version)
