Added
riscv64gc-unknown-linux-gnurelease artifacts.
#5265 -
Added
JsNullable<T>, modeling WebIDL nullable types (T | null). Both
nullandundefinedare treated as absent, per WebIDL's ECMAScript
conversion rules; the canonical empty value produced from Rust isnull.
web-sysnow usesJsNullable<T>instead ofJsOption<T>for nullable
types nested inside generics (e.g.Promise<GpuError?>from
GPUDevice.popErrorScope()), fixing spec-definednullresolutions being
treated as present values underJsOption<T>'s strict undefined-only
semantics.JsNullable<T>participates in the same upcast lattice as
JsOption<T>(including contravariant closure argument casts), and
additionally upcasts fromNulland fromJsOption<T>itself. Imported
extern types now also upcast intoJsOption<JsValue>and
JsNullable<JsValue>, so catch-all nullable closures can be used where a
typed callback is expected.
#5234
Changed
-
Emscripten output now marks public exports (free functions, classes, enums,
and namespace roots) with the__export: trueand__force: truesymbol
attributes on theiraddToLibraryentries, instead of mutating
EXPORTED_FUNCTIONSand pushing toextraLibraryFuncsat library-load time.
The$initBindgeninit closure is kept via__force: true, and private
symbols (including namespace leaves) carry neither attribute — they remain
reachable through__deps. Requires an emscripten with__export/__force
symbol-attribute support. -
Updated WebGPU bindings to the August 2026 spec, including the new
GPUCommandEncoder::copy_buffer_to_bufferoverloads andsetImmediates.
#5246 -
Unstable API overload names now elide name tokens shared by every overload
variant:LockManager::request_with_callbackis nowrequest, and
request_with_options_and_callbackis nowrequest_with_options.
#5246
Fixed
-
The
nameproperty of the JS error thrown forpanic=unwindis now set from
a string literal instead ofPanicError.name, so it survives minification.
#5260 -
Fixed Emscripten builds using pthreads failing to link.
#5254 -
__wbg_loadin web targets now throws a clear error including the HTTP
status and URL when given a non-ok fetchResponse, instead of surfacing a
misleading MIME-type or Wasm-magic-number error.
#5256 -
Restored
__stack_pointerwhen an exception unwinds out of a wasm export,
preventing repeatedpanic = "unwind"calls from leaking shadow-stack frames
until the shadow stack is exhausted and calls trap. Node reports
memory access out of bounds; poisoned instances can instead report
Module terminated.
#5244 -
slice_to_arrayon a&mutslice (which silently discarded JS's writes) or
on a slice with a generic element type is now a compile error, and strings
and arrays received by JS (e.g. aVec<String>return value) no longer make
a redundant copy of the freshly built value.
#5261 -
Fixed
asyncimports with non-JS-handle resolved types (e.g.
async fn f() -> u32;) silently producing garbage since 0.2.109: the
descriptor named the resolved type instead of thePromisehandle that
actually crosses the ABI.
#5249 -
Fixed
catchimports returningi64/u64throwing aTypeError(and
panicking in__wbindgen_exn_store) when the JS import throws, since the
handleErrorcatch path returnedundefinedwhich cannot be converted to
a Wasmi64.
#5238 -
js_namespaceis now part of an imported function's and imported static's
generated shim name. Two imports with identical Rust signatures that differed
only in theirjs_namespacehashed to the same__wbg_<name>_<hash>
symbol, so they were treated as one binding and one of the two call sites
silently invoked the wrong JS value.
#5250 -
Macro hygiene fixes -
slice_to_arraynow works in#![no_std]crates.
Generated code no longer namescoreorstdunqualified.
#5251 -
Fixed length prefixes in descriptor strings to count
chars rather than
UTF-8 bytes, so non-ASCII names injs_name/typescript_typeno longer
panic the CLI or mis-bind the generated bindings.
#5248 -
Fixed threaded Wasm memory layout to reserve wasm-bindgen's internal thread
page after the module's original initial memory instead of at__heap_base,
avoiding overlap with allocators that resolve__heap_base/__heap_endat
link time and treat that range as preexisting heap space.
#5225 -
Emscripten output now reaches wasm exports through emscripten's
wasmExports
object using bracket (string-literal) access (wasmExports['__wbindgen_start'])
instead of a localwasmalias with dot access.wasmExports['name']is the
form emcc's DCE graph roots and its import/export minifier renames in the JS
and the wasm together, so the glue now survives and stays consistent under
-O3/-Os(previously the export names were minified without updating the JS
call sites, e.g.__wbindgen_start is not defined). -
The emscripten detection marker static is no longer leaked as public API.

Navigation API to
web-sys#5247 -
Added
#[wasm_bindgen(generic_per_mono)]for imported functions, which binds a generic import once per monomorphisation instead of erasing its type parameters toJsValue. It can be applied to an individual import or to a wholeextern "C"block, which every function in the block then inherits. Each instantiation gets its own descriptor, so arguments and return values are marshalled at their concrete types (au32crosses as a number, aStringas a string) rather than being boxed. Trait bounds,wherepredicates (including higher-ranked ones), associated-type projections, lifetime parameters,async,catch, andslice_to_arrayare all supported; see the guide for the supported surface and the shapes that are rejected. -

Added experimental JSPI (JS Promise Integration) support: using it emits a compiler warning noting the experimental status. Supports
#[wasm_bindgen(jspi)]on exports (sync orasync), within which a#[wasm_bindgen(suspending)]import call can suspend to the JS event loop until itsPromisesettles.js_sys::futures::jspi_block_on_promisealso suspends on anyPromiseinside a synchronous function, whilespawn_localis context-aware: tasks spawned from within a JSPI context support synchronous JSPI suspensions throughout their call trees.

0.2.12624 Jun 2026Release notes
Open source →Changed
- Emscripten output now hoists every clean export (free functions, classes,
enums, plus their finalization registries and string-enum tables) out of the
$initBindgeninit closure into its own top-leveladdToLibrarysymbol and
self-registers it intoEXPORTED_FUNCTIONS. emscripten then emits the clean
API (add,Counter, ...) as named ESM exports under-sMODULARIZE=instance
and asModule.<name>properties (via each symbol's__postset) in factory
mode, with no extra sidecar files. Namespaced exports are reached through
their namespace root (e.g.app), assembled in the root symbol's__postset.
User module/inline-js imports are now wired asaddToLibraryshims (they were
previously dropped, since emcc resolves imports only againstenv), and their
ESM-imported bindings are__wbg_-prefixed to avoid colliding with emcc
runtime names such asModule/HEAP8.
#5210
Fixed
-
The descriptor interpreter now follows emscripten
invoke_*trampolines.
emscripten's exception/longjmp lowering rewrites direct calls into indirect
calls through the function table wrapped in importedinvoke_*(fnptr, ..args)
helpers, including the describe helpers a descriptor function must reach. The
interpreter resolvesfnptragainst the reconstructed function table, forwards
the trailing arguments, and evaluates the surrounding "did it throw?" control
flow (if/else,loop,br_table), so descriptors are interpreted
correctly on emscripten builds with unwinding/longjmp enabled.
#5215 -
Relaxed alignment requirement for 8-byte types.

matching the current Cookie Store API specification.
#5169 -
The js-sys futures codegen opt-in can now also be enabled via the
WASM_BINDGEN_USE_JS_SYS=1environment variable, in addition to
--cfg=wasm_bindgen_use_js_sys. This works on stable when--target
is in use, where Cargo does not propagate the cfg to host proc-macros.
#5164
Changed
JsOption<T>now treats onlyundefinedas empty, aligning it with
TypeScript's strictT | undefinedsemantics and withOption<T>'s wire
shape (None↔undefined). Previouslyis_empty,as_option,
into_option,unwrap,expect,unwrap_or_default, and
unwrap_or_elsetreated bothnullandundefinedas absent; JSnull
is now a distinct present value. Theimpl<T> UpcastFrom<Null> for JsOption<T>is removed (Undefinedstill models absence), and the
Debug/Displayabsent placeholder changed from"null"to
"undefined". Code relying onnull → Noneshould returnundefined
from the JS side, or check explicitly with
val.as_option().filter(|v| !v.is_null()).
#5170
Fixed
-
Removed invalid
js_sys::Array<T>tojs_sys::ArrayTuple<(...)>upcasts.
ArrayTupleencodes a fixed tuple arity, while a plain JavaScript array does
not prove that arity statically. -
Fixed incorrect variance in
&mutreference upcasting.&mut Tupcasts
were covariant in the pointee, so a&mut Tcould be widened to a&mut
of a supertype and used to write back a value the original type would not
accept, leaving a reference whose static type no longer matches the value
it points to. Mutable references are now invariant in their pointee:
&mut Tonly upcasts to&mut Targetwhen bothTarget: UpcastFrom<T>
andT: UpcastFrom<Target>hold. This rejects the invalid widening but is
a breaking change for callers that relied on widening&mutreferences.
#5176 -
Fixed WASI targets (
wasm32-wasip1/wasm32-wasip2) emitting unresolved
__wbindgen_placeholder__imports, which broke component linking. The
codegen and runtime gates now excludetarget_os = "wasi"(restoring the
pre-0.2.115 stub behavior), including thepanic = "unwind"paths in
wasm-bindgen-futures.
#5175 -

0.2.12222 May 2026Release notes
Open source →Notices
-
Threading support now requires
-Clink-arg=--export=__heap_baseto be set
inRUSTFLAGSfor nightly toolchains from 2026-05-06 onward, after
rust-lang/rust#156174
removed the implicit__heap_base/__data_endexports onwasm*
targets. Atomics CI, CLI reference tests, and thenodejs-threads,
raytrace-parallel, andwasm-audio-workletexamples have been
updated to pass--export=__heap_baseexplicitly. The flag is
backward-compatible with older nightlies. -
-Cpanic=unwindon wasm targets now emits modern (exnref) exception
handling by default after
rust-lang/rust#156061,
and requires Node.js 22.22.3+ (forWebAssembly.JSTag). Legacy EH wasm
can still be produced on current nightlies by adding
-Cllvm-args=-wasm-use-legacy-ehtoRUSTFLAGS; Node.js 20 may be
supported with legacy exception handling, with a tracking issue in
#5151.
Added
-
Implemented
TryFromJsValueforVec<T>whereT: TryFromJsValue.
A JS value converts when it is a realArray(perArray.isArray)
and every element converts viaT::try_from_js_value. This composes
recursively (Vec<Vec<String>>,Vec<Option<T>>) and works for any
Twith aTryFromJsValueimpl, including primitives,String,
JsValue, andJsCasttypes. Array-likes (objects withlengthand
numeric indices) are intentionally rejected to mirror the static ABI
representation used byjs_value_vector_from_abi. -
New
extends_js_classandextends_js_namespaceattributes on
exported structs to allow defining the parentjs_classname when
it has been customized byjs_nameand the parent's ownjs_namespace
as well in turn. New validation is added at code generation time that
will now catch these cases instead of emitting invalid code. Example:#[wasm_bindgen(js_name = "Animal", js_namespace = zoo)] pub struct AnimalImpl { /* ... */ } #[wasm_bindgen( extends = AnimalImpl, extends_js_class = "Animal", extends_js_namespace = zoo, )] pub struct DogImpl { /* ... */ }
Changed
-
When an exported struct uses
js_namespace, the corresponding value
must now be repeated on everyimplblock. Previously the impl-side
defaults silently worked resulting in inconsistent emission. Example:// Before: #[wasm_bindgen(js_namespace = "default")] pub struct Counter { /* ... */ } #[wasm_bindgen] // worked, but fragile impl Counter { /* ... */ } // After: #[wasm_bindgen(js_namespace = "default")] pub struct Counter { /* ... */ } #[wasm_bindgen(js_namespace = "default")] // now required impl Counter { /* ... */ }
To ease this transition for
js_namespaceusage, diagnostic
messages now include hints for missing namespaces for easier
fixing.
Fixed
-
Fixed the descriptor interpreter panicking on
BrandBrIf
instructions emitted by recent nightly compilers when building with
panic=unwind.
#5158 -
Emscripten output now works against vanilla upstream emscripten without
requiring a fork. Dependency tracking,HEAP_DATA_VIEWsetup,
function-decl intrinsic inlining, catch-wrapper gating, and imported
global handling have all been corrected; ESM imports
(#[wasm_bindgen(module = "...")]and snippets) are emitted to a
sidecarlibrary_bindgen.extern-pre.jsconsumers pass to emcc via
--extern-pre-js; namespaced exports (js_namespace = [...]on a
struct/impl) now attach toModule.<segments>instead of emitting
top-levelexport const(which emcc's library evaluator rejects);
the generated.d.tsfor namespaced exports is now valid TypeScript
(mangled identifiers stay module-internal viadeclare class/
declare enum/declare functionplusexport { BindgenModule };
to mark the file as a module; no spurious unqualifiedCalc:
property onBindgenModulefor namespaced items; namespace shapes
land as plain interface members (app: { math: { Calc: typeof app__math__Calc } };) instead of the previously-emittedexport let app: { ... };which was invalid TS1131 syntax inside an
interface body).
#5156 -
Fixed a duplicate phantom class being emitted for an exported struct
renamed viajs_name(Rust ident != JS class name) and/or placed in a
js_namespace, when the struct crosses the boundary as aJsValue
(e.g. via.into()). TheWrapInExportedClass/UnwrapExportedClass
imports were keyed by the Rust ident rather than the qualified JS name
thatexported_classesis keyed by (a regression from #5154), so a
fresh empty class entry was minted and emitted alongside the real one,
with afree()referencing a nonexistent wasm export. Riding the
same release's #5154 wire-format bump, the now-vestigialrust_name
field is dropped from the schema and the namespace-qualified name is
no longer cached onAuxStruct,AuxEnum, orExportedClass
(derived on demand from(name, js_namespace)), collapsing three
fallback chains that only papered over the pre-#5154 keying.

HEAP_DATA_VIEWsetup, function-decl intrinsic inlining, catch-wrapper gating, and imported global handling have all been corrected; ESM imports (#[wasm_bindgen(module = "...")]and snippets) are emitted to a sidecarlibrary_bindgen.extern-pre.jsconsumers pass to emcc via--extern-pre-js; namespaced exports (js_namespace = [...]on a struct/impl) now attach toModule.<segments>instead of emitting top-levelexport const(which emcc's library evaluator rejects); the generated.d.tsfor namespaced exports is now valid TypeScript (mangled identifiers stay module-internal viadeclare class/declare enum/declare functionplusexport { BindgenModule };to mark the file as a module; no spurious unqualifiedCalc:property onBindgenModulefor namespaced items; namespace shapes land as plain interface members (app: { math: { Calc: typeof app__math__Calc } };) instead of the previously-emittedexport let app: { ... };which was invalid TS1131 syntax inside an interface body). #5156 -
Fixed a duplicate phantom class being emitted for an exported struct renamed via
js_name(Rust ident != JS class name) and/or placed in ajs_namespace, when the struct crosses the boundary as aJsValue(e.g. via.into()). TheWrapInExportedClass/UnwrapExportedClassimports were keyed by the Rust ident rather than the qualified JS name thatexported_classesis keyed by (a regression from #5154), so a fresh empty class entry was minted and emitted alongside the real one, with afree()referencing a nonexistent wasm export. Riding the same release's #5154 wire-format bump, the now-vestigialrust_namefield is dropped from the schema and the namespace-qualified name is no longer cached onAuxStruct,AuxEnum, orExportedClass(derived on demand from(name, js_namespace)), collapsing three fallback chains that only papered over the pre-#5154 keying.

0.2.12107 May 2026Release notes
Open source →Added
-
Added the
slice_to_arrayattribute for imported JS functions,
which makes a&[T](orOption<&[T]>) argument arrive on the JS
side as a plainArrayrather than a typed array — without
changing the Rust-side&[T]signature. Useful when binding JS
APIs that takeT[]rather thanTypedArray<T>. For primitive
element kinds the wire is the same zero-copy borrow used by plain
&[T], with the JS-side shim wrapping the view inArray.from(...)
to materialise theArray— no extra allocation. ForString,
JsValue, and JS-imported element types the Rust side builds a
fresh[u32]index buffer that JS reads and frees, with per-element
&T -> JsValue(refcount bump for handle-shaped types). NoT: Clonebound is required. The attribute can be set per-fn
(#[wasm_bindgen(slice_to_array)] fn ...) or per-block on an
extern "C" { ... }declaration to apply to every imported function
in that block.&[ExportedRustStruct]remains unsupported (use
ownedVec<T>for that). Has no effect on exported functions;
default&[T](typed-array view / memory borrow) and owned
Vec<T>semantics are unchanged for callers that didn't opt in.
See the
slice_to_arrayguide page.
#5145 -
Added
js_sys::AggregateErrorbindings (constructor,errorsgetter, and
new_with_message/new_with_optionsoverloads).AggregateErrorrepresents
multiple unrelated errors wrapped in a single error, e.g. as thrown by
Promise.anywhen all input promises reject, along withjs_sys::ErrorOptions,
accepted by built-in error constructors.ErrorOptions::new(cause)
constructs an instance pre-populated withcause, andget_cause/
set_causeprovide typed access to the property. All standard error
constructors that previously took only amessage(EvalError,
RangeError,ReferenceError,SyntaxError,TypeError,URIError,
WebAssembly.CompileError,WebAssembly.LinkError,
WebAssembly.RuntimeError) now expose anew_with_options(message, &ErrorOptions)overload, andErrorgains
new_with_error_options(message, &ErrorOptions)alongside the existing
untypednew_with_options.AggregateError::new_with_optionsalso takes
&ErrorOptions.
#5139 -
Added inheritance for Rust-exported types: an exported struct may
declare#[wasm_bindgen(extends = Parent)]to inherit from another
exported#[wasm_bindgen]struct. The macro injects a hidden
parent: wasm_bindgen::Parent<Parent>field (a refcounted cell around
the parent value) and emitsclass Child extends Parentin the
generated JS /.d.ts. The child gets anAsRef<Parent<Parent>>impl
for the direct parent, and threads per-class pointer slots through
the wasm ABI so thatinstanceof Parentis true and parent methods
dispatch soundly via the JS prototype chain. From inside child
methods, parent data is reached viaself.parent.borrow()/
self.parent.borrow_mut(). See the new
extendsguide page.
#5120 -
Added
js_sys::FinalizationRegistrybindings (constructor,register,
register_with_token, andunregister). The cleanup callback parameter
is typed as&Function<fn(JsValue) -> Undefined>, so closures created via
Closure::newcan be passed usingFunction::from_closure(for owned
closures retained by JS) orFunction::closure_ref(for borrowed scoped
closures). Pairs with the existingjs_sys::WeakRefbindings.
#5140 -
Added support for well-known symbols in
js_name,getter, and
settervia the explicit bracket-string form
"[Symbol.<name>]". This works for imported and exported methods,
fields, getters, and setters. For example,
#[wasm_bindgen(js_name = "[Symbol.iterator]")]on an exported method
generates[Symbol.iterator]() { ... }on the generated JS class, and
the same syntax works forgetter/setterand for imported items.
#4230 -
Added level 2 bindings for
ViewTransitiontoweb-sys.
#5138 -
Add support for dynamic unions: a
#[wasm_bindgen]enum that mixes string-literal
variants with single-field tuple variants is now exported as an untagged TypeScript
union and dispatched dynamically at the JS↔Rust boundary. The new enum-level
#[wasm_bindgen(fallback)]attribute makes the last tuple variant an
unconditional catch-all, supporting unions whose trailing variant has no
runtime check (e.g., interface-only imports). String enums and dynamic
unions now emitexport type(was baretype) so the alias is a named
export, and both honour theprivateflag to suppress the keyword.

Fixed
-
From<Promise<T>> for JsFuture<T>andIntoFuture for Promise<T>now
accept anyT: FromWasmAbi(rather thanT: JsGeneric), letting
importedasync fns return dynamic-union enums. -
TryFromJsValuefor C-style enums no longer accepts non-numeric values
via JS unary+coercion. Previously callingdyn_into::<MyEnum>()on
a string would silently coerce it via+"foo"(yieldingNaN, then
NaN as u32 = 0) and could match a discriminant by accident; the
conversion now returnsNonefor any value that is not a JS number.
#4734 -
Fix compilation failure with
no_std+release
#5134 -
Raw identifiers (
r#name) on enums, enum variants, extern types, statics,
andimplblocks no longer leak ther#prefix into generated JS / TS
output and shim names. The Rust-side identifier and the JS-side name are
now tracked separately for enum variants, and all known identifier
fallback paths applyIdent::unraw()so e.g.
pub enum r#Enum { r#A }generatesEnum.Ainstead of producing
syntactically invalid JS.
#4323 -
Using the
-C panic=unwindoption when building for the bundler target

0.2.12028 Apr 2026Release notes
Open source →Added
-
Added support for the
wasm64-unknown-unknowntarget (memory64 / wasm64).
usize/isizeand raw pointers are now lowered through anf64JS
number ABI on wasm64 (matching the existing convention used forOption<u32>
etc. on wasm32), with the CLI inspecting the module's memory type to pick
the right codegen path. Includes a dedicatedwasm64CI job and test
suite covering the new ABI paths.
#5004 -
Promise ergonomics:
Promise::all_tupleandPromise::all_settled_tuple
for heterogeneous concurrent awaits (arity 1..=8, destructure via
.into_tuple()), and a newwasm_bindgen::IntoJsGenerictrait underpinning
typed-Arrayinference (with codegen-emitted identity impls and a
#[wasm_bindgen(no_into_js_generic)]opt-out for types likeJsClosure).
Also re-exportsJsGenericfrom the prelude. Typed collection on
js_sys::Array<T>is exposed as the inherent constructor
Array::<T>::from_iter_typed(and companionextend_typed), inferringT
from the iterator item viaIntoJsGeneric. The stableFromIterator/
Extendimpls onArray(=Array<JsValue>) bound byAsRef<JsValue>
are preserved, so existing.collect::<Array>()call sites keep compiling
unchanged. Fixes #5042.
#5121,
#5125 -
Added
wasm_bindgen::instance()to return the current
WebAssembly.Instance. The generated JS glue retains the
instantiatedWebAssembly.Instance.
#5118 -
Added a
--cfg=wasm_bindgen_use_js_sysopt-in that makes async macro codegen
usejs_sys::futuresinstead ofwasm_bindgen_futures, dropping the need
forwasm-bindgen-futureswhen the crate already depends onjs-sys. A cfg
is used rather than a Cargo feature so the choice stays scoped to the crate
that opts in.
#5112
#5127
Changed
- Simplified generated
web-sysbindings by omitting redundant
#[wasm_bindgen]attributes when they match wasm-bindgen defaults, including
structural method annotations and matchingjs_nameentries. The
#[wasm_bindgen]attribute parser now also accepts string-literal forms for
extends,static_method_of, andvendor_prefix(alongside the existing
bare-path/ident syntax), and the generator emits these arguments along with
js_nameas string literals sorustfmtcan format the generated
#[wasm_bindgen(...)]attributes uniformly.
#5122
Fixed
-
Fixed namespaced export identifiers in generated JS/TS to use qualified names
consistently, resolving order-dependent codegen issues across platforms. Also
fixedVec<T>types in TS signatures to resolve through the identifier map.
#5106 -
Fixed
wasm-bindgen-test-runnertreating ChromeDriver stderr warnings as
startup failures on macOS, causing a restart loop until timeout. The runner
no longer uses stderr output to determine if a driver has failed; instead a
per-attempt timeout detects stuck drivers and retries on a new port.

Added
Error::stack_trace_limit()andError::set_stack_trace_limit()bindings

#5082 -
Added support for multiple
#[wasm_bindgen(start)]functions, which are
chained together at initialization, as well as a new
#[wasm_bindgen(start, private)]to register a start function without
exporting it as a public export.
#5081 -
Reinitialization is no longer automatically applied when using
panic=unwind
and--experimental-reset-state-function, instead it is triggered by any
use of thehandler::schedule_reinit()function underpanic=unwind,
which is supported from within theon_aborthandler for reinit workflows.
Renamedhandler::reinit()tohandler::schedule_reinit()and removed
theset_on_reinit()handler. The__instance_terminatedaddress
is now always a simple boolean (0= live,1= terminated).
#5083 -
handler::schedule_reinit()now works underpanic=abortbuilds. Previously
it was a no-op; it now sets the JS-side reinit flag and the next export call
transparently creates a freshWebAssembly.Instance.
#5099

#5102

-
ES module
importstatements are now hoisted to the top of generated JS
files, placed right after the@ts-self-typesdirective. This ensures
valid ES module output sinceimportdeclarations must precede other

#5103 -
Fixed two CLI issues affecting WASM modules built by rustc 1.94+. First,
a panic (failed to find N in function table) caused by lld emitting element
segment offsets asglobal.get $__table_baseor extended const expressions
instead of plaini32.const Nfor large function tables; the fix adds a
const-expression evaluator inget_function_table_entryand guards against
integer underflow in multi-segment tables. Second, the descriptor interpreter
now routes all global reads/writes through a singleglobalsHashMap seeded
from the module's own globals, and mirrors the module's actual linear memory
rather than a fixed 32KB buffer, so the stack pointer's real value is valid
without any override. This fixes panics likefailed to find 32752 in function tablecaused byGOT.func.internal.*globals being misidentified as the
stack pointer.

The generated signature is cleaner and theMaybeUnwindSafebound is visible directly in the argument position. The ABI and wire format are unchanged. When building withpanic=unwind, closures that capture non-UnwindSafevalues (e.g.&mut T,Cell<T>) must wrap them inAssertUnwindSafebefore capture; on all other targetsMaybeUnwindSafeis a no-op blanket impl. #5056

Works for blob URL workers, module workers, URL-based workers (importScripts), nested workers, and shared workers (including logs emitted before the first port connection). Non-cloneable arguments are serialized viaString()rather than crashing the worker. The--nocaptureflag is respected. #5037 -
js_sys::Promise<T>now implementsIntoFuture, enabling direct.awaiton any JS promise without a wrapper type. Thewasm-bindgen-futuresimplementation has been moved intojs-sysbehind an optionalfuturesfeature, which is activated automatically whenwasm-bindgen-futuresis a dependency.

Refactored the headless browser test runner logging pipeline for dramatically improved performance (>400x faster on Chrome, >10x on Firefox, ~5x on Safari). Switched to incremental DOM scraping with
textContent.slice(offset), append-only output semantics, unified log capture across all log levels on failure, and browser-specific invisible-div optimizations (display:nonefor Chrome/Firefox,visibility:hiddenfor Safari). #4960 -
TTY-gated status/clear output in the test runner shell to avoid
\rcontrol-character artifacts in non-interactive (CI) environments. #4960 -
Added
bench_console_log_10mbbenchmark alongside the existing 1MB benchmark for the headless test runner. The main branch cannot complete this benchmark at any volume. #4960 -

-
Fixed argument order when calling multi-parameter functions in the

Added support for per-operation
[WbgGeneric]in WebIDL, restoring typed generic return types (e.g.Promise<ImageBitmap>) forcreateImageBitmaponWindowandWorkerGlobalScopethat were lost after theVideoFramestabilization. #5026 -
Fixed missing
#[cfg(feature = "...")]gates on deprecated dictionary builder methods and getters for union-typed fields (e.g.{Open,Save,Directory}FilePickerOptions::start_in()), and fixed per-setter doc requirements to list each setter's own required features. #5039 -

Fixed a type inference regression (
E0283: type annotations needed) introduced in v0.2.109 where the stableFromIteratorandExtendimpls onjs_sys::Arraywere changed fromA: AsRef<JsValue>toA: AsRef<T>. Because#[wasm_bindgen]generates multipleAsRefimpls per type, the compiler could not uniquely resolveT, breaking code likeArray::from_iter([my_wasm_value])without explicit annotations. The stable impls are restored toA: AsRef<JsValue>(returningArray<JsValue>); the genericA: AsRef<T>forms remain available underjs_sys_unstable_apis. #5052 -

Added
unchecked_optional_param_typeattribute for marking exported function parameters as optional in TypeScript (?:) and JSDoc ([paramName]) output. Mutually exclusive withunchecked_param_type. Required parameters after optional parameters are rejected at compile time. #5002 -
Added termination detection for
panic=unwindbuilds. When a non-JS exception (e.g. a Rust panic) escapes from Wasm, the instance is marked as terminated and subsequent calls from JS into Wasm will throw aModule terminatederror instead of re-entering corrupted state. #5005 -

Open source →Changed
-
Reduced usage of
unsafecode: replacedtransmute/transmute_copywith safe alternatives forBoolean/Null/Undefinedconstants andArrayTupleconversions, unified duplicatedAsRef/Fromimpls for generic imported types, and removed the__wbindgen_object_is_undefinedintrinsic in favor of a safe Rust-side equivalent. #4993 -
Renamed
__wbindgen_object_is_null_or_undefinedintrinsic to__wbindgen_is_null_or_undefinedand removed the__wbindgen_object_is_undefinedintrinsic, replacing it with a safe Rust-side check. Theis_null_or_undefinedcheck now uses safe&JsValueABI instead of rawu32. #4994
Fixed
- Fixed incorrect method naming for stable web-sys methods that reference unstable
types (e.g.
texImage2Dtaking aVideoFrameparameter). These methods were being named in a separate unstable expansion namespace, producing overly-short names liketex_image_2dinstead of the correcttex_image_2d_with_u32_and_u32_and_video_frame. The fix separates the signature classification to distinguish "from unstable IDL" (authoritative overrides) from "stable method using an unstable type", ensuring the latter is named as part of the stable expansion. #4991

0.2.11021 Feb 2026Release notes
Open source →Changed
- Refactor new closure methods - ensures that all closure constructor functions have the variants
Closure::foo(),Closure::foo_aborting()andClosure::foo_assert_unwind_safe()this then fully allows switching from the UnwindSafe bound now being applies on foo() to use one of the alternatives, given these limitations of AssertUnwindSafe. The same applies toImmediateClosure. In addition, mutable reentrancy guards are added forImmediateClosure, and it is updated to be pass-by-value as well. #4975
Fixed
- Fixed a regression where Array.of1,... variants using generic
Array<T>broke inference. Reverted to use non-generic JsValue arguments. In addition extends generic class hoisting to for constructors to also includestatic_method_ofmethods returning the own type, to allowArray::ofgeneric to now be on theArray<T>impl block. #4974

0.2.10920 Feb 2026Release notes
Open source →Added
-
Added support for erasable generic type parameters on imported JavaScript types, using sound type erasure in JS bindgen boundary. Includes updated js-sys bindings with generic implementations for many standard JS types and functions including
Array<T>,Promise<T>,Map<K, V>,Iterator<T>, and more. #4876 -
Added
ScopedClosure<'a, T>as a unified closure type with lifetime parameter.ScopedClosure::borrow(&f)(for immutableFn) andScopedClosure::borrow_mut(&mut f)(for mutableFnMut) create borrowed closures that can capture non-'staticreferences, ideal for immediate/synchronous JS callbacks.Closure<T>is now a type alias forScopedClosure<'static, T>, maintaining backwards compatibility. Also addedIntoWasmAbiimplementation forClosure<T>enabling pass-by-value ownership transfer to JavaScript. -
Added
ImmediateClosure<'a, T>as a lightweight, unwind-safe replacement for&dyn FnMutin immediate/synchronous callbacks. UnlikeScopedClosure, it has no JS call on creation, no JS call on drop, and no GC overhead—the same ABI as&dyn FnMutbut with panic safety. UseImmediateClosure::new(&f)for immutableFnclosures (easier to satisfy unwind safety) orImmediateClosure::new_mut(&mut f)for mutableFnMutclosures. Closure parameter types are automatically inferred from context. Also implementsFrom<&ImmediateClosure<T>> for ScopedClosure<T>for API migration. #4950 -
Implement
#[wasm_bindgen(catch)]exception handling directly in Wasm usingWebAssembly.JSTagwhen Wasm exception handling is available. This generates smaller and faster code by avoiding JavaScripthandleErrorwrapper functions. #4942 -
Add Node.js
worker_threadssupport for atomics builds. When targeting Node.js with atomics enabled, wasm-bindgen now generatesinitSync({ module, memory, thread_stack_size })and__wbg_get_imports(memory)functions that allow worker threads to initialize with a shared WebAssembly.Memory and pre-compiled module. Auto-initialization occurs only on the main thread for backwards compatibility. -
Added a panic message when a getter has more than one argument. #4936
-
Added support for WebIDL namespace attributes in
wasm-bindgen-webidl. This enables APIs like the CSS Custom Highlight API which adds thehighlightsattribute to theCSSnamespace. #4930 -
Added stable
ShowPopoverOptionsdictionary andshow_popover_with_options()method toHtmlElement, and unstableTogglePopoverOptionsdictionary per the WHATWG HTML spec. #4968 -
Added unstable Geolocation API types per the latest W3C spec:
GeolocationCoordinates,GeolocationPosition, andGeolocationPositionError. TheGeolocationinterface now has both stable methods (using the oldPosition/PositionErrortypes with[Throws]) and unstable methods (using the new types without[Throws]}, matching actual browser behavior). #2578 -
Added
matrixTransform()method toDOMPointReadOnlyinweb-sys. #4962 -
Added the
webandnodetargets to the--experimental-reset-state-functionflag. #4909 -
Added
oncancelevent handler toGlobalEventHandlers(available onHtmlElement,Document,Window, etc.). #4542 -
Added
CommandEventandCommandEventInitfrom the Invoker Commands API. #4552 -
Added
AbstractRange,StaticRange, andStaticRangeInitinterfaces. #4221 -
Updated WebCodecs API to Working Draft 2026-01-29 and MediaRecorder API to 2025-04-17. Added
rotationandfliptoVideoDecoderConfig. #4411 -
Added support for unstable WebIDL to override stable attribute types, allowing corrected type signatures behind
web_sys_unstable_apis. Applied toMouseEventcoordinate attributes (clientX,clientY,screenX,screenY,offsetX,offsetY,pageX,pageY) which now returnf64instead ofi32when unstable APIs are enabled, per the CSSOM View spec draft. #4935 -
Added support for unstable WebIDL to override stable method return types. This enables User Timing Level 3 APIs where
Performance.mark()andPerformance.measure()returnPerformanceMarkandPerformanceMeasurerespectively (instead ofundefined) whenweb_sys_unstable_apisis enabled. Also addedPerformanceMarkOptions,PerformanceMeasureOptions, and thedetailattribute on marks/measures. #3734 -
Added non-standard
modeoption forFileSystemFileHandle.createSyncAccessHandle(). Also improved WebIDL generator to track stability at the signature level, allowing stable methods to have unstable overloads. #4928 -
Updated WebGPU bindings to the February 2026 spec. Dictionary fields with union types now generate multiple type-safe setters (e.g.
set_resource_gpu_sampler(),set_resource_gpu_texture_view()) alongside a deprecated fallback setter. Sequence arguments in unstable APIs now use typed slices (&[T]) instead of&JsValue. Fixed inner string enum types to useJsStringin generic positions, addedBigIntto builtin identifiers, and fixed dictionary field feature gates to not over-constrain getters with setter type requirements. #4955 -
Improved dictionary union type expansion: stable fallback setters are no longer deprecated, and unstable builder methods now use the first typed variant instead of
&JsValue. Dictionaries with required union fields now generate expanded constructors for each variant (e.g.new(),new_with_gpu_texture_view()), with duplicate-signature variants elided. #4966
Changed
-
Increased externref stack size from 128 to 1024 slots to prevent "table index is out of bounds" errors in applications with deep call stacks or many concurrent async operations. #4951
-
Closure::new(),Closure::once(), and related methods now requireUnwindSafebounds on closures when building withpanic=unwind. New_abortingvariants (new_aborting(),once_aborting(), etc.) are provided for closures that don't need panic catching and want to avoid theUnwindSaferequirement. #4893 -
globaldoes not use the unsafe-evalnew Functiontrick anymore allowing to have CSP strict compliant packages withwasm-bindgen. #4910 -
evalandFunctionconstructors are now gated behind theunsafe-evalfeature. #4914
Fixed
-
Fixed incorrect JS export names when LLVM merges identical functions at
opt-level >= 2. #4946 -
Fixed incorrect
Closureadapter deduplication when wasm-ld's Identical Code Folding merges invoke functions for different closure types into the same export. #4953 -
Fixed
ReferenceErrorwhen using Rust struct names that conflict with JS builtins (e.g.,Array). The constructor now correctly uses the aliasedFinalizationRegistryidentifier. #4932 -
Fixed
Element::scroll_top(),Element::scroll_left(), andHtmlElement::scroll_top()to returnf64instead ofi32per the CSSOM View spec, behindweb_sys_unstable_apis. The stable API is unchanged for backwards compatibility. #4525 -
Added spec-compliant
i32parameter types forCanvasRenderingContext2d::get_image_data()andput_image_data()(andOffscreenCanvasRenderingContext2dequivalents) behindweb_sys_unstable_apis. Per the HTML spec,getImageDataandputImageDatauselong(i32) for coordinates, notdouble(f64). The stable API is unchanged for backwards compatibility. #1920 -
Fixed incorrect
#[cfg(web_sys_unstable_apis)]gating on stable method signatures that share a WebIDL operation with unstable overloads. For example,Clipboard.read()(0 args) was incorrectly gated as unstable because the unstableread(options)overload existed. The WebIDL code generator now uses an authoritative expansion model where stable and unstable signature sets are built independently and compared: identical signatures merge (no gate), stable-only signatures getnot(unstable), and unstable-only signatures getunstable. Also adds typed generics (Promise<T>,Array<T>,Function<fn(...)>, etc.) to all unstable API methods, and adds missingPhotoCapabilities,PhotoSettings,MediaSettingsRange,Point2D,RedEyeReduction,FillLightMode, andMeteringModetypes from the W3C Image Capture spec. #4964 -
Fixed
unfulfilled_lint_expectationswarnings when using#[expect(...)]attributes on functions annotated with#[wasm_bindgen]. The#[expect]attributes are now converted to#[allow]in generated code to prevent spurious warnings. #4409
