We are happy to announce that we have just released cordova-lib 9.0.0!

• cordova-lib@9.0.0

Release Highlights

In addition to various improvements and fixes, this release has removed the --browserify flag.

As NodeJS 4.x support has been dropped by the NodeJS team on April 30th, 2018, we have raised the minimum required NodeJS version for this release to 6.x.
