• Add simple support for CORS to esbuild's development server (#​4125)

  Starting with version 0.25.0, esbuild's development server is no longer configured to serve cross-origin requests. This was a deliberate change to prevent any website you visit from accessing your running esbuild development server. However, this change prevented (by design) certain use cases such as "debugging in production" by having your production website load code from localhost where the esbuild development server is running.

  To enable this use case, esbuild is adding a feature to allow Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (a.k.a. CORS) for simple requests. Specifically, passing your origin to the new cors option will now set the Access-Control-Allow-Origin response header when the request has a matching Origin header. Note that this currently only works for requests that don't send a preflight OPTIONS request, as esbuild's development server doesn't currently support OPTIONS requests.

  Some examples:

  • CLI:

    esbuild --servedir=. --cors-origin=https://example.com
    

  • JS:

    const ctx = await esbuild.context({})
    await ctx.serve({
      servedir: '.',
      cors: {
        origin: 'https://example.com',
      },
    })

  • Go:

    ctx, _ := api.Context(api.BuildOptions{})
    ctx.Serve(api.ServeOptions{
      Servedir: ".",
      CORS: api.CORSOptions{
        Origin: []string{"https://example.com"},
      },
    })

  The special origin * can be used to allow any origin to access esbuild's development server. Note that this means any website you visit will be able to read everything served by esbuild.

• Pass through invalid URLs in source maps unmodified (#​4169)

  This fixes a regression in version 0.25.0 where sources in source maps that form invalid URLs were not being passed through to the output. Version 0.25.0 changed the interpretation of sources from file paths to URLs, which means that URL parsing can now fail. Previously URLs that couldn't be parsed were replaced with the empty string. With this release, invalid URLs in sources should now be passed through unmodified.

• Handle exports named __proto__ in ES modules (#​4162, #​4163)

  In JavaScript, the special property name __proto__ sets the prototype when used inside an object literal. Previously esbuild's ESM-to-CommonJS conversion didn't special-case the property name of exports named __proto__ so the exported getter accidentally became the prototype of the object literal. It's unclear what this affects, if anything, but it's better practice to avoid this by using a computed property name in this case.

• Fix lowered async arrow functions before super() (#​4141, #​4142)

  This change makes it possible to call an async arrow function in a constructor before calling super() when targeting environments without async support, as long as the function body doesn't reference this. Here's an example (notice the change from this to null):

  // Original code
  class Foo extends Object {
    constructor() {
      (async () => await foo())()
      super()
    }
  }
  
  // Old output (with --target=es2016)
  class Foo extends Object {
    constructor() {
      (() => __async(this, null, function* () {
        return yield foo();
      }))();
      super();
    }
  }
  
  // New output (with --target=es2016)
  class Foo extends Object {
    constructor() {
      (() => __async(null, null, function* () {
        return yield foo();
      }))();
      super();
    }
  }

  Some background: Arrow functions with the async keyword are transformed into generator functions for older language targets such as --target=es2016. Since arrow functions capture this, the generated code forwards this into the body of the generator function. However, JavaScript class syntax forbids using this in a constructor before calling super(), and this forwarding was problematic since previously happened even when the function body doesn't use this. Starting with this release, esbuild will now only forward this if it's used within the function body.

• Fix memory leak with --watch=true (#​4131, #​4132)

  This release fixes a memory leak with esbuild when --watch=true is used instead of --watch. Previously using --watch=true caused esbuild to continue to use more and more memory for every rebuild, but --watch=true should now behave like --watch and not leak memory.

  This bug happened because esbuild disables the garbage collector when it's not run as a long-lived process for extra speed, but esbuild's checks for which arguments cause esbuild to be a long-lived process weren't updated for the new --watch=true style of boolean command-line flags. This has been an issue since this boolean flag syntax was added in version 0.14.24 in 2022. These checks are unfortunately separate from the regular argument parser because of how esbuild's internals are organized (the command-line interface is exposed as a separate Go API so you can build your own custom esbuild CLI).

• More concise output for repeated legal comments (#​4139)

  Some libraries have many files and also use the same legal comment text in all files. Previously esbuild would copy each legal comment to the output file. Starting with this release, legal comments duplicated across separate files will now be grouped in the output file by unique comment content.

• Allow a custom host with the development server (#​4110)

  With this release, you can now use a custom non-IP host with esbuild's local development server (either with --serve= for the CLI or with the serve() call for the API). This was previously possible, but was intentionally broken in version 0.25.0 to fix a security issue. This change adds the functionality back except that it's now opt-in and only for a single domain name that you provide.

  For example, if you add a mapping in your /etc/hosts file from local.example.com to 127.0.0.1 and then use esbuild --serve=local.example.com:8000, you will now be able to visit http://local.example.com:8000/ in your browser and successfully connect to esbuild's development server (doing that would previously have been blocked by the browser). This should also work with HTTPS if it's enabled (see esbuild's documentation for how to do that).

• Add a limit to CSS nesting expansion (#​4114)

  With this release, esbuild will now fail with an error if there is too much CSS nesting expansion. This can happen when nested CSS is converted to CSS without nesting for older browsers as expanding CSS nesting is inherently exponential due to the resulting combinatorial explosion. The expansion limit is currently hard-coded and cannot be changed, but is extremely unlikely to trigger for real code. It exists to prevent esbuild from using too much time and/or memory. Here's an example:

  a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{color:red}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

  Previously, transforming this file with --target=safari1 took 5 seconds and generated 40mb of CSS. Trying to do that will now generate the following error instead:

  ✘ [ERROR] CSS nesting is causing too much expansion
  
      example.css:1:60:
        1 │ a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{a,b{color:red}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
          ╵                                                             ^
  
    CSS nesting expansion was terminated because a rule was generated with 65536 selectors. This limit
    exists to prevent esbuild from using too much time and/or memory. Please change your CSS to use
    fewer levels of nesting.
  

• Fix path resolution edge case (#​4144)

  This fixes an edge case where esbuild's path resolution algorithm could deviate from node's path resolution algorithm. It involves a confusing situation where a directory shares the same file name as a file (but without the file extension). See the linked issue for specific details. This appears to be a case where esbuild is correctly following node's published resolution algorithm but where node itself is doing something different. Specifically the step LOAD_AS_FILE appears to be skipped when the input ends with ... This release changes esbuild's behavior for this edge case to match node's behavior.

• Update Go from 1.23.7 to 1.23.8 (#​4133, #​4134)

  This should have no effect on existing code as this version change does not change Go's operating system support. It may remove certain reports from vulnerability scanners that detect which version of the Go compiler esbuild uses, such as for CVE-2025-22871.

  As a reminder, esbuild's development server is intended for development, not for production, so I do not consider most networking-related vulnerabilities in Go to be vulnerabilities in esbuild. Please do not use esbuild's development server in production.
