Notes

It's the start of a new release cycle, and we have lots of changes for you once again! These include bug fixes, compatibility updates, performance improvements and more.

We've now removed support for minifying with Closure Compiler on export - it now always uses UglifyJS. So far we're not aware of any issues with using UglifyJS, but as ever let us know if you come across any.

Other changes include some new examples demonstrating the use of audio worklets and import maps, some scripting updates, improved performance for hierarchy conditions like 'Pick children', and a big batch of bug fixes. Happy testing!

Let us know with a thumbs up!
