What's New

v4.0​

Release Date: Feb 10, 2023

ES Modules

  • probe.gl is now published as a set of ES modules (type: module is set in package.json).
  • ES Modules by design only support import syntax, however efforts have been made to remain compatible with require.
  • A set of package.json exports are provided to avoid issues that arise when mixing ES modules and traditional JS modules.

TypeScript

  • Improved TypesSript typing enables us to more easily accept PRs.

@probe.gl/bench

  • The `Bench class API has been updated for TypeScript with improved type safety.
  • Some overloads are no longer supported, refer to the upgrade guide for advice on how to update your code.
