This releases finalizes our 6 month long effort to fully implement the Web Cryptography API. We're done - the entirety of the Web Cryptography API is now implemented in Deno*.

Deno now passes 98.1% of the web platform test suite for the Web Cryptography API. For some comparsion data: Chrome/Edge pass 94.5% of tests, Firefox passes 93.4%, and Safari passes in 99.8% of tests. You can see the current data for yourself on wpt.fyi.

We are continuing to iterate on the configuration file that we first introduced in Deno v1.14. Previously, using a configuration file required you to specify the --config flag, followed by the path to the config file.

Starting with this release, Deno will automatically discover configuration files with the deno.json or deno.jsonc filenames. You can still explicitly pass a config file path with --config to force a specific file to be used.

For subcommands that don't specify file arguments (eg. deno fmt) Deno will look for configuration files in the current working directory, walking the directory tree upwards until a config file is found. For subcommands that specify file arguments (e.g. deno run ./src/file1.js), Deno will look for a sibling configuration file to the given entrypoint, walking the directory tree upwards.
