v15.0.0-next.3

15.0.0-next.3 (2022-09-28)

Breaking Changes

@angular-devkit/build-angular

• The server builder bundleDependencies option has been removed. This option was used pre Ivy. Currently, using this option is unlikely to produce working server bundles.

  The externalDependencies option can be used instead to exclude specific node_module packages from the final bundle.

• • Deprecated support for tilde import has been removed. Please update the imports by removing the ~.

  Before

  @import "~font-awesome/scss/font-awesome";

  After

  @import "font-awesome/scss/font-awesome";

  • By default the CLI will use Sass modern API, While not recommended, users can still opt to use legacy API by setting NG_BUILD_LEGACY_SASS=1.

• require.context are no longer parsed. Webpack specific features are not supported nor guaranteed to work in the future.

v15.0.0-next.2

15.0.0-next.2 (2022-09-21)

Breaking Changes

@angular-devkit/build-angular

• Internally the Angular CLI now always sets the TypeScript target to ES2022 and useDefineForClassFields to false unless the target is set to ES2022 or later in the TypeScript configuration. To control ECMA version and features use the Browerslist configuration.
• Producing ES5 output is no longer possible. This was needed for Internet Explorer which is no longer supported. All browsers that Angular supports work with ES2015+
• Deprecated support for Stylus has been removed. The Stylus package has never reached a stable version and its usage in the Angular CLI is minimal. It's recommended to migrate to another CSS preprocessor that the Angular CLI supports.

@angular-devkit/core

• Workspace projects with missing root is now an error.

@schematics/angular

	enable error on unknown properties and elements in tests
