title: "The Biggest wasm-pack Release Yet"
---

We've just published `wasm-pack` version 0.5.0! This release is by far the
largest `wasm-pack` release we've made so far. We finally have the Rust and
WebAssembly workflow we've always dreamed of. Yes, details will change in the
future (and most likely in semver-breaking ways), but `wasm-pack` has found its
niche and is well on the way to filling it.

`wasm-pack build` is effectively incremental now. It will automatically Do The
Right Thing with `wasm-bindgen` binary installs: find the exact correct version
*and* cache installs so that re-builds are speedy.

`wasm-pack test` let's you run Rust unit tests in Node.js or headless browsers
via the WebDriver protocol and `wasm-bindgen-test`. Furthermore, it is *easy* to
run tests in headless browsers; a task which usually involves the banging of
head to wall. But `wasm-pack` will transparently download, cache, and configure
WebDriver clients for you — no more head ache.

Also, [`wasm-pack` got a Website](https://rustwasm.github.io/wasm-pack/) and it
has pre-built binaries for common architectures and operating systems, so
installing `wasm-pack` is a breeze 🌬️
