 # @openwallet-foundation/askar-nodejs
 
+## 0.5.0
+
+### Minor Changes
+
+- f626ebc: chore: drop support for Node 18
+- f0ae878: feat: update to Askar 0.5.0 release.
+
+  - This adds support for providing a custom Argon2 config.
+  - In addition it adds methods to list the open sessions and scans on a store. Note however that these methods are only implemented in the Node.JS wrapper for now, they will be added to the React Native wrapper at a later stage.
+
+- f626ebc: rewrite the Node.JS FFI integration based on Koffi. This enabled Node.JS 24 support and provides a more modern integration
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- f626ebc: feat: support Node.JS 24
+- a4f1969: docs: update version compatibility in readme
+- 9121e2a: fix: wrap the askar registration with a `NativeAskar` class that exposes two static members: a `.instance` getter and `register` method.
+
+  Previously when you did not import the native askar library on the first line (or above all logic that uses Askar) the reference to Askar would be undefined. (i.e. askar-shared is imported before askar-react-native or askar-nodejs)
+
+  The `registerAskar` method and `askar` property are kept for backwards compatibility, but these are still prone to the same error. `registerAskar` integrated with the new `NativeAskar` class, and so all usages within the shared library, as well as the nodejs and react-native wrappers will be fixed. We recommend to update to the new `NativeAskar` class for all other usages.
