V8 release v7.2 · V8

Every six weeks, we create a new branch of V8 as part of our release process. Each version is branched from V8’s Git master immediately before a Chrome Beta milestone. Today we’re pleased to announce our newest branch, V8 version 7.2, which is in beta until its release in coordination with Chrome 72 Stable in several weeks. V8 v7.2 is filled with all sorts of developer-facing goodies. This post provides a preview of some of the highlights in anticipation of the release.
