      #14955
  • dns

      resolver are passed on as-is, without the reshuffling that Node.js
      otherwise does that puts IPv4 addresses before IPv6 addresses.
      #14731
  • fs
    • add fs.copyFile and fs.copyFileSync which allows for more efficient
      copying of files.
      #15034
  • inspector
    • Enable async stack traces #13870
  • module
    • Add support for ESM. This is currently behind the --experimental-modules flag
      and requires the .mjs extension.
      node --experimental-modules index.mjs
      #14369
  • napi
  • os
    • Add support for CIDR notation to the output of the networkInterfaces() method.
      #14307
  • perf_hooks
    • An initial implementation of the Performance Timing API for Node.js. This is the
      same Performance Timing API implemented by modern browsers with a number of Node.js
      specific properties. The User Timing mark() and measure() APIs are implemented.
      #14680
  • tls
    • multiple PFX in createSecureContext
