<p>There are actually not a huge number of new features in this release, but there has been a significant change in the way JBrowse is built behind the scenes, and the introduction of a slight (slight! I hope it's slight!) backward incompatibility with some existing plugins.</p>
<p>JBrowse now uses webpack to build and package its code for consumption by web browsers, which opens up a lot of options for the development team, paving the way for a much nicer road to all of the great things coming down the road in JBrowse 2. Most importantly, it means that we can build JBrowse 2 with modern technologies, while sharing code (particularly data stores) with JBrowse 1, which should greatly accelerate JBrowse 2 development. Yeah, we're playing 4-D chess here.</p>
<p>However, besides the big build system overhaul, there are also some nice new improvements and bug fixes in this release, read below for the full release notes.</p>

<ul>
<li>JBrowse now uses a Webpack-based build system, which greatly speeds up JBrowse's
initial loading time. More importantly, going forward, this change will also enable us to make much more effective use of the huge node.js ecosystem that has grown up in
recent years, as well as to use newer versions of JavaScript itself while
still maintaining compatibility with older web browsers.</li>
<li>Behind the scenes, the way JBrowse plugins are discovered and loaded has also
changed significantly. The most visible consequence of this change is that
installations that use plugins must now use the JBrowse-1.13.0-dev.zip release
(or check out the <code>master</code> branch from GitHub), and must re-run the webpack build
(most easily by running <code>setup.sh</code>) every time a plugin is added or removed from
JBrowse. Although we think that most users of plugins will not experience any
problems, we recommend that installations that make use of plugins other than the
standard built-in plugins (Neat*Features, RegexSearch, etc) test the compatibility
of their plugins thoroughly before deploying this release, and report any problems
either to the JBrowse issue tracker on GitHub, or to the gmod-ajax mailing list.</li>
<li>Again, concisely: if you use JBrowse plugins other than the "stock" ones that
come with JBrowse, you must now use the <code>dev</code> release of JBrowse, and re-run either
<code>setup.sh</code> or <code>npm run build</code> every time you add or remove a plugin.
(<a href="https://github.com/gmod/jbrowse/issues/981">issue #981</a>, <a href="https://github.com/rbuels">@rbuels</a>)</li>
<li>JBrowse plugins can now be published and installed with NPM. Simply publish your
plugin using the standard <code>npm publish</code> machinery, and make sure its package name
ends with "-jbrowse-plugin". For example, if you have a plugin named "foo", publish
it to npm as "foo-jbrowse-plugin". However, if your plugin is named MyAwesomePlugin,
which is not compatible with npmjs.org's naming conventions, you will want to publish
it as something like "myawesome-jbrowse-plugin" and add a configuration stanza to its
package.json file telling JBrowse its real plugin name. Example:</li>
</ul>
<pre style="display: block;">{
...
"jbrowsePlugin": {
"name": "MyAwesomePlugin"
},
...
}
</pre>

<ul>
<li>Added <code>disableCollapsedClick</code> and <code>enableCollapsedMouseover</code> track configuration options.
The <code>enableCollapsedMouseover</code> option is useful when features do not overlap e.g.
chromosome segmentation and <code>disableCollapsedClick</code> is useful when the collapsed features
are very dense. Thanks to <a href="https://github.com/rdhayes">@rdhayes</a> for tips (<a href="https://github.com/gmod/jbrowse/issues/544">issue #544</a>, <a href="https://github.com/gmod/jbrowse/pull/870">issue #870</a>, <a href="https://github.com/cmdcolin">@cmdcolin</a>)</li>
<li>Removed JBrowse 1.2.1 compatibility. Please use JBrowse 1.12.5 or earlier
if you still have old data formatted with JBrowse 1.2.1. (<a href="https://github.com/rbuels">@rbuels</a>)</li>
<li>For <code>npm</code> installations of JBrowse, jb_run.js and jb_setup.js are now installed into
the standard <code>node_modules/.bin</code> location. (<a href="https://github.com/gmod/jbrowse/issues/1021">issue #1021</a>, <a href="https://github.com/rbuels">@rbuels</a>)</li>

<ul>
<li>Fixed a bug in which adding setting <code>tracklabels=0</code> in the URL failed to hide
track labels when <code>nav=0</code> was also set in the URL. Thanks to Vaneet Lotay for reporting
the problem, and <a href="https://github.com/cmdcolin">@cmdcolin</a> for the fix. (<a href="https://github.com/gmod/jbrowse/issues/1017">issue #1017</a>, <a href="https://github.com/gmod/jbrowse/pull/1018">issue #1018</a>, <a href="https://github.com/cmdcolin">@cmdcolin</a>)</li>
