NW.js v0.119.2 Released with Node.js v26.12.1

2026/10/22

NW.js 0.119.2 is released with a Node.js v26.12.1 update.

In NW v0.119, Chromium 156 contains the usual under-the-hood performance and stability tweaks, but there are also some cool new features to explore. It supports the CSS random() function for generative randomness in stylesheets, the CSS :navigation-source pseudo-class that selects the element which initiated a navigation, custom request headers and server response headers in WebTransport, WebGPU fragment depth modifiers in WGSL for keeping early-Z optimizations, and the pair keyword for scroll-snap-type to snap both axes to the same element. Note that the Fenced Frame element and window.fence APIs are stubbed out in this milestone. Please check upstream release notes for details. For a complete list of all features (including experimental features) in this release, see the Chrome 156 milestone hotlist.

We've made the 0.119 branch ready soon after Chromium beta bumps to 156. Thanks to the testers for their valuable feedback and bug reports. We've been working on 2 branches simultaneously: a released branch on the current Chromium stable and a beta branch on Chromium beta.

Best regards, NW.js maintainers
