• Expand minitrace when dump is expanded
• New SVG icons for buttons
• Performance improvements (Including a massive performance bug in chrome)
• Misc Bugfixes

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

Kint: Pslam type hint for plugin_pool

TextRenderer: Whitelist DateTimePlugin

ClassStaticsPlugin: Fix const cache perf regression

Bugfix adding to folder for first time

Spanning 205 commits and rewrites of numerous systems, kint 6 is the biggest major release since the first full rewrite started in 2015.

Features

• "Open in new window" has been replaced with "Move to folder"
• Lots more modules enabled by default
• Lots more features support text mode
• PHP 8.4 support
  • Property hooks
  • Aviz
  • Dom\XMLDocument/Dom\HTMLDocument
• Full JS rewrite
• Large internal rewrites lead to up to 33% faster runtime and 30% less memory usage despite all these new features (Depending on workload)

Migration

If 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.

Settings

The following settings were renamed or moved:

• RichRenderer::$js_nonce => AbstractRenderer::$js_nonce
• RichRenderer::$css_nonce => AbstractRenderer::$css_nonce
• Kint::$file_link_format => AbstractRenderer::$file_link_format
• Kint::$app_root_dirs => Utils::$path_aliases
• BlobValue::$char_encodings => Utils::$char_encodings
• BlobValue::$legacy_encodings => Utils::$legacy_encodings

Plugins

The 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
