v5.7.1 — Chocolate 🍫 Pavlova with Spiced Pears 🍐

Hello all! 👋

We want to bring a delicious chocolate 🍫 pavlova with spiced pears 🍐 to celebrate 🎉 this holiday season. Sit down 🪑, relax 🤗, and enjoy 🥳!!!

While Truffle dropped support for Node 12 a while back, we hadn't been enforcing this in our Node version check at startup. We now check this; Truffle will now refuse to run on Node 12 to prevent any problems.

One more thing! Please take a moment to complete The Solidity Development Survey 2022. This helps our community 🧑🏽‍🤝‍🧑🏽 to improve. Thanks! 🙏🏽

How to upgrade

We recommend upgrading to the latest version of Truffle by running:

npm uninstall -g truffle
npm install -g truffle
