[v2.2.1]: https://github.com/ethereumjs/rlp/compare/2.2.0...v2.2.1

## [v2.2.0] - 2018-12-17

[DEPRECATED] Please update to `v2.2.1`, release contains a broken CLI `bin/rlp`
command!

First `TypeScript` based release of `EthereumJS` libraries, thanks @krzkaczor,
@GrandSchtroumpf, @whymarrh, @holgerd77 for the great work on this!

This release doesn't introduce any main new features but will serve as a basis
for further `TypeScript` transitions coming along with greater type safety
for `EthereumJS` libraries. If you are developing in `TypeScript` you can
further already benefit from the `RLP` type declarations published from now on
along new releases.

See PR [#37](https://github.com/ethereumjs/rlp/pull/37) and subsequent PRs merged
towards the associated `typescript` branch to get an overview on the changes.
The release also comes along with the introduction of a new repo
[ethereumjs-config](https://github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-config) centralizing
configuration for `EthereumJS` libraries on `TypeScript` itself as well as
linting, formatting and testing.

This release passes all existing unit tests and other checks. If you nevertheless
experience problems please report on the `EthereumJS`
[Gitter](https://gitter.im/ethereum/ethereumjs) channel.
