Here is the first 0.50 update with Node.js v15.3.0. Two experimental APIs App.enableComponent()
and App.updateComponent()
are added to enable the Widevine support in the application.
Previously I released 0.50 with Chromium 87 stable upgrade. It added supports for the Wayland platform, Control camera pan, tilt, and zoom; CSS flow-relative shorthand and offset properties; Atomics.waitAsync(); Streams API: transferable streams and more. Please check Chromium blog for details. For a complete list of all features (including experimental features) in this release, see the Chrome 87 milestone hotlist.
I've made the 0.50 branch ready soon after Chromium beta bumps to 87. Thanks to the testers for their valuable feedback and bug reports. I've been working on 2 branches simultaneously: a released branch on current Chromium stable and a beta branch on Chromium beta.
Best regards,
Roger Wang

There are 2 builds for each platform - normal build, and SDK build. Normal build doesn't have devtools, only SDK build does. lt can be opened by pressing F12 (Cmd-Alt-I on OSX). SDK packages also have more development tools to be exposed in the following releases, as well as the NaCl support.
