New Features

WebSocket: You can now send Blob objects directly using the .send() method, making it easier to work with binary data. This feature enhances compatibility with web applications that utilize Blob for data handling.
WebSocket: A new createConnection option is added to control client socket setup, providing more flexibility in how connections are established.
WebSocket: Introduce the autoPong option to disable automatic pong responses to pings, giving you more control over your WebSocket connections. This feature enhances flexibility in managing WebSocket behavior.
WebSocket: Add the ability to skip UTF-8 validation for text and close messages with the new skipUTF8Validation option, allowing for more lenient message handling when needed.
WebSocket: Introduce the generateMask option, enabling custom masking key generation for WebSocket messages, enhancing security and flexibility in message handling.
WebSocket: Add WebSocket#pause() and WebSocket#resume() methods, allowing you to control the flow of data in your WebSocket connections more effectively.
WebSocket: The server now includes the sec-websocket-version header in responses when an invalid version is requested, ensuring better compliance with WebSocket standards.
WebSocket: Introduce the 'wsClientError' event, allowing you to inspect invalid handshake requests and respond with custom HTTP responses, improving error handling capabilities.

Improvements

WebSocket: The default value of allowSynchronousEvents is now set to true, improving the handling of synchronous events in your applications.
WebSocket: The library now emits at most one event per event loop iteration, enhancing performance and reducing potential event handling issues.
WebSocket: Improve the handling of the Upgrade header by ensuring that it is not overridden, enhancing the reliability of WebSocket connections.
WebSocket: Simplify the ws+unix: URL form by removing unnecessary characters, making it easier to understand and use.
WebSocket: Enhance the WebSocketServer documentation to clarify the callback argument's behavior, ensuring better understanding for developers.
WebSocket: Improve the documentation for websocket.bufferedAmount, providing clearer guidance on its usage and behavior.
WebSocket: The handling of maxPayload errors is improved to prevent callback races and ensure correct error codes are emitted.

Fixes

Fix issues with the handleUpgrade method to ensure it works correctly even when the socket is just a stream, preventing unexpected failures.
Fix the handling of close codes to allow for codes 1012 and 1013, which are now recognized as valid close codes for WebSocket connections.
Fix the WebSocket#close() method to ensure it behaves correctly when called from an error listener, preventing infinite loops.
Fix the handling of the Upgrade header to close the connection if it is invalid, ensuring that only valid WebSocket connections are established.
Fix the crash when the Upgrade header cannot be read, ensuring that the WebSocket connection is handled gracefully even in error scenarios.
Fix the WebSocket constructor to throw a SyntaxError for invalid connection URLs, improving error handling and user feedback.
Ensure that the WebSocketServer.prototype.close() method does not emit a 'close' event prematurely, providing a more accurate event flow.

Others

Enhance the WebSocket server's ability to handle redirects by ensuring sensitive headers are not forwarded during the process, improving security.
Improve the overall documentation and examples to provide clearer guidance on using the WebSocket library effectively.
Add support for Windows named pipes, expanding the versatility of the WebSocket library for different environments.
Improve the CI configuration to enhance testing across different Node.js versions, ensuring better compatibility and reliability.
