[Wikitech-l]  Fresh 22.09 released!

[Krinkle]

This release promotes Node.js 16 to be the default runtime in fresh-node.

Get started by installing, updating, or learning more, at:
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/fresh#fresh-environment

Changelog:
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/fresh/+/22.09.1/CHANGELOG.md

Node.js 16 is now the default environment for the fresh-node command. This 
addresses an issue with Vue.js development using Vite 3, which did not work 
well under Node.js 14. (Thanks Lucas Werkmeister, T314051 
).

Note that most projects still test on Node.js 14 in WMF CI. [1] If you find 
that some of your tests don't yet pass under Node.js 16, fret not! Node.js 14 
and 12 remain available via the bundled fresh-node14 and fresh-node12 commands.

If you encounter problems in Fresh with Node.js 16 or experience other issues, 
let us know on Phabricator at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/fresh/. 
This is also where you can browse previous tasks.

Fresh is a fast way to create isolated environments from your terminal. These 
can be used to work more responsibly with 'npm' developer tools such as ESLint, 
QUnit, Grunt, Selenium, and more. Example guide:
