Are there any plans to update the ua-parser-js library in next js?

[PeterJSung]

hello. It appears that version 1 of ua-parser-js is used in nextjs.
https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/canary/packages/next/package.json#L338

The ua-parser-js maintainer changed the library to a paid service starting from version 2, and also changed the license to AGPL.Link

I wonder if this situation has been checked by the nextjs team.
It seems that users may also experience problems when nextjs updates the library in the future.

Thank you.

Good info, I think the library is vendored into the compiled packages, https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/next/src/compiled/ua-parser-js

But interesting, perhaps the team has to figure out a way forward, if they ever feel like they need to upgrade this.

If you start a project, and do npm explain ua-parser-js it won't find it... cuz it is vendored into Next.js ~

Yes, I don’t think there will be any major problems right now. I was wondering if the Next JS team knew this information. thank you

@icyJoseph Did you manage to find more information from the nextjs team, what is their plan for the future regarding the ua-parser-js library. Is nextjs going to keep using and packaging the library?
