sourcemation/nodejs-26 repository overview

⁠NodeJS 26 with Yarn Classic packed by Sourcemation

Leveraging its cross-platform nature and scalable architecture, Node.js® serves as a powerful JavaScript runtime, facilitating the development of a wide spectrum of applications, from simple command-line tools to complex conferencing solutions, all thanks to its vibrant community and extensive collection of modules.

This particular NodeJS distribution is built upon the sourcemation/debian-13-slim base image and integrates Node.js version 26 along with Yarn Classic, specifically version 1.22.XX.

This image is optimized for build reproducibility and contains the packages needed to compile NodeJS, providing developers with all tools needed in more advanced NodeJS development - thus it's not a super small image.

⁠NodeJS 26 new features

Node.js 26 introduces several significant improvements and modern capabilities:

• Temporal API Enabled by Default: The standard Temporal API is now stable and enabled globally, providing a modern, immutable, and time-zone-aware alternative to the legacy Date object.
• V8 Engine 14.6: Brings new ECMAScript capabilities like Map Upsert Helpers (Map.prototype.getOrInsert) and Iterator Sequencing (Iterator.concat).
• Stable TypeScript Type Stripping: Built-in TypeScript type erasure is now fully stable, allowing direct execution of TypeScript files without external transpilers.
• Undici 8.0: Improved performance and HTTP/2 handling for the native fetch() library.
• Enhanced Permissions: The new permission.drop API allows running processes to drop their own security privileges dynamically.
