The main change in this version is the experimental "scriptlets" support. "Scriptlet" is a JavaScript function that provides extended capabilities for content blocking. These functions can be used in a declarative manner in AdGuard filtering rules. AdGuard maintains its own scriptlets library, please report any issues there. Also, if you have an idea of a useful scriptlet we could implement, please feel free to open a feature request.
AdGuard supports three types of scriptlets syntax:
#%#//scriptlet- AdGuard scriptlets syntax##+js(uBO-compatible)#$#(Adblock Plus snippets)
What it means is that AdGuard is able to understand rules built for both uBO and ABP. You can learn what is supported from this compatibility table.
