summary
Node 27 ships and Node 20 LTS in weeks prompts upgrades—stop using Node 16, move to 18 or 20. Concrete changes: OpenSSL 3 upgrade may disable old algorithms; DNS now respects server order (flag to force ipv4); fetch API now available as a high-level HTTP client; experimental WASI/wasm previews require explicit opt-in; built-in test runner (stable in 20), single-executable bundling via FUSE, argument parser, tracing/diagnostic channels, process-based permissions, and widened ARM64 support. Next-10 uses surveys with thousands of responses to prioritize teams (performance, security, examples, website).
