    ➕ Added support for parsing byte-strings, with the use_bytes flag (commit 9ee8428).

    📜 UnexpectedToken exception now has the accepts attribute, which contains a list of terminals that would be accepted by the parser instead (in addition to the expects attribute, which is guided by the lexer and may include terminals that won't be accepted by the parser) (commit a7bcd0b)

    👍 Allow multiline regexes with the x flag (commit 9923987)

    0️⃣ Lark no longer uses the default logger. Instead uses lark.LOGGER. (commit 7010f96)

    🚀 The main features for this release:

    ✅ https://github.com/lark-parser/lark/blob/master/tests/test_parser.py#L845

    Lark online IDE : Technically not a feature, but it's possible to run Lark in the browser. Now we also have a simple IDE on github pages: https://lark-parser.github.io/lark/ide/app.html
