*Kotlin 2.5.0-Beta2*, the second preview release in the 2.5.0 cycle, <https://kotlinlang.org/docs/whatsnew-eap.html|is now available!> :tada:

In addition to the <https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0B8L3U69/p1790170351300349|highlights introduced in Beta1>, Beta2 brings the following *Kotlin/JS updates:*
• New Node.js toolchain service in the Kotlin Gradle plugin — <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-88882|KT-88882>
• New dedicated DSL for declaring npm dependencies — <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-88868|KT-88868>
• KDoc export in TypeScript declarations — <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-56493|KT-56493>
• Type aliases export in TypeScript declarations — <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-49795|KT-49795>
:warning: *Migration notes:*
The standalone `kotlin-js` <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-85440|Gradle plugin has been removed>. Use the Kotlin Multiplatform plugin with a JS target instead.

Give the preview a try! We'd love to hear your feedback on Node.js provisioning, npm dependencies, TypeScript declaration generation, or any unexpected behavior. Share your feedback at <http://kotl.in/issue|kotl.in/issue> or here in Slack! :thread-please:
