### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

* **chromedriver:** the package requires the Appium 4 versions of the @appium/* dependencies and Node.js 22.22.2+, 24.15.0+ or 26+.
* **chromedriver:** clients relying on the legacy JSONWP protocol or on chromeOptions.w3c: false to force it now get a W3C session instead.
* **chromedriver:** Chromedriver versions older than 2.32, which have no W3C support, are not supported anymore.

### Features

* **chromedriver:** add Appium 4 support and drop JSONWP protocol support ([a1e508e](https://github.com/appium/appium-android/commit/a1e508e5f09ba85587b99022ca096e59aef00329))
