Important Note for npm users

This release updates some dependencies, which may trigger a npm bug. See here for the webpack issue. The npm bug has been fixed, but a new npm version has not been released yet.

For workarounds see this comment.

Eventually the fix will be to upgrade npm once the bugfix is released.

Features

• update acorn to v6
• limit the number of in parallel written output files to 15
• add output.futureEmitAssets which gives the emitting logic of webpack 5
  • assets are replaced with SizeOnlySources
  • reading assets after emitting is no longer allowed
  • This allows memory to be garbage-collected
