Summary

vNext (v0.4.x) is a version with new worker implementation. In Napa.js vNext, napa worker loads and initializes its javascript VM in node.js style, which enables most of node.js APIs and addon support.

NOTE: Napa.js 0.4.0-pre is a pre-release version. Some features are still in progress.

Features

• Better Node.js API compatibility. Most of Node APIs will be supported by default. See compatibility tracking.
• Native addon support. All native addon can be loaded in worker by default, unless it's implemented non-thread-safely. See compatibility tracking.

Napa.js 0.4.x works on Node.js 10.2.0 or later.
