Also give a brief explanation note about:
- what was the old feature that was made obsolete
- any replacement feature (if any), and
- how the author should modify his website to migrate from the old feature to the replacement feature (if possible).
Custom Plugin File Extensions & Node.js Bump
Old feature that was made obsolete:
Previously, custom plugins written in .js files were always loaded implicitly as CommonJS (CJS) modules, preventing the use of modern ESM packages inside plugins.
Any replacement feature:
MarkBind now explicitly supports both CJS and ESM plugins. Plugin loading now relies on explicit file extensions (.cjs and .mjs) to safely mix module types. Additionally, the minimum required Node.js version is now v22.12.
How authors should modify their website to migrate:
1. Rename existing plugins: Rename any existing CommonJS custom plugin files from myPlugin.js to myPlugin.cjs to guarantee they are processed correctly.
2. Writing new plugins: Use .mjs for new ES Module plugins.
3. Update Node.js: Ensure your local environment and CI/CD deployment pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Netlify) are using Node.js v22.12 or higher.

Breaking Changes
This release deprecates support for Vue 2 and introduces full support for Vue 3. Vue 2 is no longer supported by MarkBind as it has reached its end of life in 31 December 2023. All MarkBind components and internal rendering logic now use Vue 3.3.11.
Vue 2 -based plugins and custom components must be updated to comply with Vue 3 syntax and API. Deprecated HTML5 syntax support is removed, such as , , and similar tags that are no longer rendered or styled reliably.
Scoped slots API (scopedSlots) has been replaced by the new slots API as per Vue 3 standards. Internal test and SSR setup has been restructured to reflect modern Vue 3 testing libraries and bundling practices.
What Site Authors Need to Do:
If you are using custom Vue components and directives, please migrate them using the Vue 3 Migration Guide. If your site uses deprecated HTML tags, replace them with semantic HTML5 alternatives or appropriate CSS styling. If you have extended MarkBind through plugins that rely on Vue APIs, refer to updated documentation for best practices post-migration.
