    • New methods extractFirst() and extractLast() can be used to extract a single value of the first or the last match respectively
    • New method join() can be used to properly group multiple sets of related data
    • Inferred return types have been greatly improved
  • The builtin scripts have been updated to reflect the new extraction semantics
  • Primitive values can now be yielded as output from scrapers or scripts without the need to be wrapped in objects
  • Random protocol and bridge ports can be used by setting them to 0 in the config
