Summary

This release introduces the new angular-rspack builder with extensive feature parity for Angular builds, alongside core improvements like Bun parser support and better TUI diagnostics. Several configuration options have been renamed for clarity, and Stylus support has been removed.

⚠️ Breaking Changes

  • Stylus support has been removed from bundling configurations. Users relying on Stylus must migrate to another supported preprocessor (e.g., Sass, Less, CSS Modules).
  • The configuration option `jit` has been renamed to `aot` in `angular-rspack` and `angular-rsbuild`.
  • The configuration option `tsconfigPath` has been renamed to `tsConfig` in `angular-rspack` and `angular-rsbuild`.
  • The configuration option `inlineStylesExtension` has been renamed to `inlineStyleLanguage` in `angular-rspack` and `angular-rsbuild`.
  • The configuration option `ssrEntry` has been renamed to `ssr.entry` in `angular-rspack` and `angular-rsbuild`.
  • The root property was removed from the public API in `angular-rspack` and `angular-rsbuild`.

Migration Steps

  1. If you were using Stylus, migrate your configuration to use a different supported preprocessor.
  2. Update configurations referencing `jit` to use `aot` instead.
  3. Update configurations referencing `tsconfigPath` to use `tsConfig` instead.
  4. Update configurations referencing `inlineStylesExtension` to use `inlineStyleLanguage` instead.
  5. Update configurations referencing `ssrEntry` to use `ssr.entry` instead.
  6. Review any code that relied on the root property being present in the public API of `angular-rspack` or `angular-rsbuild` and remove those references.
