Node v16.9.0 (Current)

Michaël Zasso

Node.js now includes Corepack, a script that acts as a bridge between Node.js projects and the package managers they are intended to be used with during development. In practical terms, Corepack will let you use Yarn and pnpm without having to install them - just like what currently happens with npm, which is shipped in Node.js by default. Please head over to the Corepack documentation page for more information on how to use it.

V8 9.3

V8 is updated to version 9.3, which includes performance improvements and new JavaScript features.

`Object.hasOwn`

Object.hasOwn is a static alias for Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call:

Object.hasOwn({ value: 42 }, 'value'); // Returns `true`.

Error cause

Errors can now be optionally constructed with a cause option, pointing to another error. This adds a cause property on the new error:

const error1 = new Error('Error one');
const error2 = new Error('Error two', { cause: error1 });
// error2.cause === error1
