PerryTS/perry v0.5.1112

on GitHub

First tagged distribution release since v0.5.1028 — folds in 1198 commits (852 fixes, 42 features, plus tests/docs/refactors). This tag is a clean version-bump checkpoint over a fully CI-green main.

Highlights

• Broad Node.js builtin parity push: crypto/webcrypto, http/http2/Agent socket pooling, zlib (sync + streaming + Brotli), child_process (streaming spawn, fork + V8-IPC, promisify), util, process, punycode, url, worker_threads, stream (web codec constructors, iterator helpers), dgram, cluster, path, vm.
• Reflective builtin-prototype brand checks (#3662 family): Function.prototype.apply/call/bind/toString, primitive prototypes (Number/Boolean/Symbol/BigInt), collection prototype methods, namespace member reflection.
• Typed-array prototype + constructor coverage (join/slice/reverse/fill/subarray, RangeError validation, proto accessors).
• Generational-GC evacuation + async-resume fixes.

Features (selected)

• compile: module-graph tree-shaking / DCE for compilePackages.
• Self-hosted build-time precompile() — Perry runs its own codegen with no node/V8.
• node:zlib complete sync codec parity + Transform-stream objects + Brotli.
• node:child_process async spawn reactor, fork + IPC, exec error/encoding parity.
• node:http Agent socket pooling + createConnection/createSocket on the request path.
• Generator function expressions, yield* operand iteration, class [Symbol.iterator]/[Symbol.asyncIterator] via member access.
• perry/ui: continuous pointer/key events, onFrame/cancelFrame display-link callbacks; perry/audio cross-platform sound; GTK4 live CameraView.
• Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors, dynamic-import directory-glob template specifiers.

Fixes

• 852 fixes across codegen, HIR lowering, runtime, and stdlib — Node export hygiene, dispatch correctness, stream construction paths, handle-deref segfaults, and large swaths of the TypeScript/Node compatibility roadmap (#793).
