# Upgrading WXT
## Overview
@@ -12,6 +16,195 @@ Listed below are all the breaking changes you should address when upgrading to a
Currently, WXT is in pre-release. This means changes to the second digit, `v0.X`, are considered major and have breaking changes. Once v1 is released, only major version bumps will have breaking changes.
## v0.19.0 → v0.20.0
v0.20 is a big release! There are lots of breaking changes because this version is intended to be a release candidate for v1.0. If all goes well, v1.0 will be released with no additional breaking changes.
:::tip
Read through all the changes once before making any code changes.
:::
### `webextension-polyfill` Removed
WXT no longer uses the `webextension-polyfill` internally and `wxt/browser` uses the `chrome`/`browser` globals provided by the browser.
To upgrade, you have two options:
1. **Stop using the polyfill**
- No changes required, this is the default behavior of v0.20. Your extension will likely continue to work, but do some manual testing to confirm.
2. **Continue using the polyfill**
- Install the polyfill, types (if you use typescript), and WXT's [new polyfill module](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@wxt-dev/webextension-polyfill):
```sh
pnpm i webextension-polyfill
pnpm i -D @types/webextension-polyfill @wxt-dev/webextension-polyfill
```
- Add the WXT module to your config:
```ts
// wxt.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
modules: ['@wxt-dev/webextension-polyfill'],
});
```
Additionally, the `extensionApi` config has been removed. Remove it from your `wxt.config.ts` file if present:
```ts
// wxt.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
extensionApi: 'chrome', // [!code --]
});
```
### `public/` and `modules/` Directories Moved
The default location for the `public/` and `modules/` directories have changed to better align with standards set by other frameworks (Nuxt, Next, Astro, etc). Now, each path is relative to the project's root directory.
- If you follow the default folder structure, you don't need to make any changes.
- If you set a custom `srcDir`, you have two options:
1. Keep the folders in the same place and update your project config:
```ts
// wxt.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
srcDir: 'src',
publicDir: 'src/public', // [!code ++]
modulesDir: 'src/modules', // [!code ++]
});
```
2. Move the your `public/` and `modules/` directories to the project root:
```diff
<root>/
+ modules/
+ public/
src/
components/
entrypoints/
- modules/
- public/
utils/
wxt.config.ts
```
### Import Path Changes
The APIs exported by `wxt/sandbox`, `wxt/client`, or `wxt/storage` have moved to `wxt/utils/*`.
To upgrade, replace these imports with the new `#imports` module:
```ts
import { storage } from 'wxt/storage'; // [!code --]
import { defineContentScript } from 'wxt/sandbox'; // [!code --]
import { ContentScriptContext, useAppConfig } from 'wxt/client'; // [!code --]
import { storage } from '#imports'; // [!code ++]
import { defineContentScript } from '#imports'; // [!code ++]
import { ContentScriptContext, useAppConfig } from '#imports'; // [!code ++]
```
You can combine the imports into a single import statement, but it's easier to just find/replace each statement.
:::tip
Before types will work, you'll need to run `wxt prepare` after installing v0.20 to generate the new TypeScript declarations.

Read more about the new `#imports` module in the [blog post](/blog/2024-12-06-using-imports-module).
### `createShadowRootUi` CSS Changes
WXT now resets styles inherited from the webpage (`visibility`, `color`, `font-size`, etc.) by setting `all: initial` inside the shadow root.
If you use `createShadowRootUi`:
1. Double check that your UI looks the same as before.
2. If you have any manual CSS resets to override a page style, you can remove them:
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
```css
/* entrypoints/reddit.content/style.css */
body { /* [!code --] */
/* Override Reddit's default "hidden" visibility on elements */ /* [!code --] */
visibility: visible !important; /* [!code --] */
} /* [!code --] */
```
:::warning
This doesn't effect `rem` units. You should continue using `postcss-rem-to-px` or an equivalent library if the webpage sets the HTML element's `font-size`.
:::
If you run into problems with the new behavior, you can disable it and continue using your current CSS:
```ts
const ui = await createShadowRootUi({
inheritStyles: true, // [!code ++]
// ...
});
```
### Default Output Directories Changed
The default value for [`outDirTemplate`](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/InlineConfig#outdirtemplate) has changed. Now, different build modes are output to different directories:
- `--mode production`: `.output/chrome-mv3` (unchanged)
- `--mode development`: `.output/chrome-mv3-dev` (`-dev` suffix)
- `--mode custom`: `.output/chrome-mv3-custom` (`-[mode]` suffix)
To revert and use the old behavior, writing all output to the same directory, set `outDirTemplate` option:
```ts
// wxt.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
outDirTemplate: '{{browser}}-mv{{manifestVersion}}', // [!code ++]
});
```
### `runner` APIs Renamed
To improve consistency with the `web-ext.config.ts` file, the "runner" APIs have been renamed. You can continue using the old names, but they have been deprecated and will be removed in a future version:
1. The `runner` option has been renamed to `webExt`:
```ts
// wxt.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
runner: { // [!code --]
webExt: { // [!code ++]
startUrls: ["https://wxt.dev"],
},
});
```
2. `defineRunnerConfig` has been renamed to `defineWebExtConfig`:
```ts
// web-ext.config.ts
import { defineRunnerConfig } from 'wxt'; // [!code --]
import { defineWebExtConfig } from 'wxt'; // [!code ++]
```
3. The `ExtensionRunnerConfig` type has been renamed to `WebExtConfig`
```ts
import type { ExtensionRunnerConfig } from 'wxt'; // [!code --]
import type { WebExtConfig } from 'wxt'; // [!code ++]
```
### Load Config as ESM
`wxt.config.ts` and `web-ext.config.ts` are now loaded as ESM modules. Previously, they were loaded as CJS.
If you're using any CJS APIs, like `__filename` or `__dirname`, replace them with their ESM counterparts, like `import.meta.filename` or `import.meta.dirname`.
### Deprecated APIs Removed
- `entrypointLoader` option: WXT now uses `vite-node` for importing entrypoints during the build process.
> This was deprecated in v0.19.0, see the [v0.19 section](#v0-18-5-rarr-v0-19-0) for migration steps.
- `transformManifest` option: Use the `build:manifestGenerated` hook to transform the manifest instead:
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
```ts
// wxt.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
transformManifest(manifest) { // [!code --]
hooks: { // [!code ++]
'build:manifestGenerated': (_, manifest) => { // [!code ++]
// ...
}, // [!code ++]
},
});
```
