We have posted build 1.0.83 for download and updated the online docs.
Markdown
This is the last build that will use fandoc format for API comments and chapters. We will be converting everything to markdown shortly for 1.0.84. We are providing backward compatible support for existing pods that use fandoc. See topic 2949 for more details.
Future in JavaScript
The concurrent::Future class has been significantly enhanced in JS to wrap a Promise with new methods and functionality. While the async behavior between Java and JavaScript is still dramatically different, you can now actually write code uses the same API between the two models.
TimeZone Database
We updated the timezone database to 2025c which has significant changes. Many first class timezones are now aliases. We have created a new repo under the Fantom org to track all these changes and notes about the upgrade.
