Instead, it will be targeting <strong>es2017<\/strong>+. This will allow for faster and more performant code as well as the latest ES advancements available in <strong>es2017<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This release now has the ability to extend native platform classes directly in <a href=\"http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/tag\/javascript\">JavaScript<\/a> via the <em>NativeClass()<\/em> decorator. This feature applies to <a href=\"http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/tag\/typescript\">TypeScript <\/a>based projects only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The array of JSON package files have now been consolidated into a single <em>nativescript.config.ts<\/em> or <em>nativescript.config.js<\/em> file rather than having them spread over several directories such as the <em>root<\/em>, <em>src<\/em>, and <em>app <\/em>directories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The default <a href=\"http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/tag\/ios\">iOS<\/a> runtime is now using the same JavaScript v8 engine with <em>@nativescript\/io<\/em>s instead of using JavaScriptCore the same way NativeScript&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/tag\/android\">Android<\/a> runtime has been for quite a while. However, you can still use <em>tns-ios<\/em> runtime based on <strong>JavaScriptCore<\/strong> if you find that the new <a href=\"http:\/\/local.brightwhiz\/tag\/v8\">v8 engine<\/a> has an issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can check out the official NativeScript 7.0 Release release notes here to find out more details about this release <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/NativeScript\/NativeScript\/blob\/master\/CHANGELOG.md\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.
