Changelog

This release features a great new addition to Redwood's prerendering capabilities: Redwood now preloads the Apollo Client Cache on the frontend with the data retrieved during prerendering. Where Cells are used, this allows the data served during prerender to match the client data.

In addition to that, there's plenty more features and fixes in this release like:

• a new OAuth cookbook for dbAuth https://redwoodjs.com/docs/how-to/oauth
• integrated TypeScript support for alias paths https://redwoodjs.com/docs/typescript/introduction#using-alias-paths

We plan for this release to be the last v5 release before the next major, but will of course release patches as appropriate.

Lastly, if you're using Clerk authentication and haven't seen the new auth decoder in the v5.3.2 patch, please see the release notes and migration guide: https://github.com/redwoodjs/redwood/releases/tag/v5.3.2.
