What this post added
Node.js 15 updates the default behavior for unhandled promise rejections to terminate the process, aligning with community expectations and improving debuggability. It introduces `--unhandled-rejections` flag for configuration. N-API Version 7 adds `napi_detach_arraybuffer` and `napi_is_detached_arraybuffer` for array buffer management. The Async Local Storage API is refined and remains experimental. npm 7 is included with default peer dependency installation, with a `--legacy-peer-deps` workaround.
