2.16.2 is a patch release with bug fixes.

✨ Highlights

The main change in this patch release is that we now patch the crypto node built-in during build to allow Nuxt 2 to be used on Node versions greater than Node 16, which should ease the pressure users feel after Node 16 reaches its own EOL this year.

Warning This should not be taken for an endorsement of continuing to run with Webpack 4, which is out of date and has a number of dependencies with issues. I expect that number to continue to grow, and we will not be able to resolve all of them. I would strongly urge migrating to Nuxt 3 if possible and the team will do our best to make this possible over the course of the year ❤️
