• Dropped support for using gulp directly, all tasks need to be used via yarn [taskName] or npm run [taskName]
• Rewritten ESLint task, integrated with watch and dev tasks
• Added option to set a custom Babel config
• New default config for Babel and Browserlist, that targets only most popular browsers in North America and Europe (no IE11)
• Magepack tasks throws now more meaningful errors if required params were not set
• Added support for Node.js v16, dropped  for Node.js v12
• All dependencies got update to the latest version
• Native ESM is now used internaly instead of pollified version

Added

• magepackGenerate and magepackBundle tasks - you don't need to install globally Magepack CLI anymore to optimize your theme performance
• Option to import .js config files via getConfig helper

Changed

• Minor dependencies bump

Bump node-sass to v5.0.0 supported by Node.js v14.

• Option to use Dart Sass compiler - Since Node Sass is now deprecated, we are adding an option to switch to Dart Sass. Unfortunately, Dart Sass doesn't support all Node Sass features, so for now we will keep the older solution as default, to simplify the migration process.
• Node.js v14 LTS support added

• Allow imports from root node_modules for scss - #356 thanks to @GrimLink
• Refactor eslint task - #396
• dependencies update - https://github.com/SnowdogApps/magento2-frontools/commit/920e915d0382a1a0246e6c9b918f285158eb7310

Fixes:

• Not working dev, never ending browser sync initialization process- #365 #370

Updates:

• Dependencies update

Breaking changes

• email-fix task was renamed to emailfix. To keep backward compatibility you can still use old naming via npm scripts yarn email-fix or npm run email-fix
• AT themes.json in postcss config of the theme, you shouldn't use plugins.something anymore, but just something. Although, all dependencies are no longer automatically available everywhere, so if you wish to use some additional PostCSS plugin, you need to import it manually in helpers/scss.js file. Please check sample config
