NW.js v0.88.0 Released with Chromium 125 and Node.js v22
Roger Wang
I'm pleased to announce NW v0.88.0 with Chromium 125 stable upgrade and Node.js v22.0.0.
In NW v0.88, Chromium 125 contains usual under-the-hood performance and stability tweaks, but there are also some cool new features to explore. It supports CSS Anchor Positioning, Declarative shadow DOM serialization, The Compute Pressure API and much more. Please check upstream release notes for details. For a complete list of all features (including experimental features) in this release, see the Chrome 125 milestone hotlist.
I've made the 0.88 branch ready soon after Chromium beta bumps to 125. Thanks to the testers for their valuable feedback and bug reports. I've been working on 2 branches simultaneously: a released branch on the current Chromium stable and a beta branch on Chromium beta.
Best regards,
Roger Wang
