Full Changelog: https://github.com/faker-js/faker/compare/v8.0.0-beta.0...v8.0.0-beta.1
We are happy to announce that we are moving into the beta phase of v8. The v8 version is the last to support NodeJS v14 which reaches EOF tomorrow (2023-04-30) as well as TS 4.x. Future major versions (>= v9) won't support NodeJS v14 anymore and also official support for TS 4.x will be discontinued.
From now on, only small changes will be made; all the big things we wanted in v8 have already been implemented. This means we are now actively asking for your feedback, especially for the migration guide https://next.fakerjs.dev/guide/upgrading.html.
Biggest changes between v7 to v8:
@faker-js/faker, but there is a known bug #1791 so it is currently still recommended to import them from @faker-js/faker/locale/<locale>.faker.rawDefinitions, but this is not officially supported and can be changed at anytime.Please explore https://next.fakerjs.dev for more information.
