This allows us to squeeze a lot more perf out of complex systems by omitting the access paths and depth. Effectively we can avoid cloning all methods
This allows us to squeeze a lot more perf out of complex systems
by omitting the access paths and depth. Effectively we can avoid
cloning all methods for every instance and just reuse the existing
MethodValues repeatedly.
Totally incompatible with text renderers since they pretty much
require depth to be set correctly

Dom\XMLDocument/Dom\HTMLDocumentIf you're just using Kint out of the box it should work the same as Kint 5. Depending on how much customizing you did you may have more work on your plate.
The following settings were renamed or moved:
RichRenderer::$js_nonce => AbstractRenderer::$js_nonceRichRenderer::$css_nonce => AbstractRenderer::$css_nonceKint::$file_link_format => AbstractRenderer::$file_link_formatKint::$app_root_dirs => Utils::$path_aliasesBlobValue::$char_encodings => Utils::$char_encodingsBlobValue::$legacy_encodings => Utils::$legacy_encodingsThe plugin system has been completely reworked, in both parser and renderers. If you rely on custom plugins they will need to be ported to Kint 6.
Thanks to @DRSDavidSoft for the CSS work
