### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

* **vite-svg-2-webfont:** Node 20 and Node 25 are no longer supported — the plugin now requires Node `^22 || ^24 || >=26`.

### Features

* **vite-svg-2-webfont:** require Node 22+/24+/26+ and use native node:fs.globSync ([fe7df82](https://github.com/atlowChemi/vite-svg-2-webfont/commit/fe7df82b56ddecdd146b6df4e8bf7bb47ee18b4b))
