The following changes were made to _settings.scss. All new projects will get these changes automatically. If you're upgrading an existing project, you'll need to change these defaults or add the new variables yourself.
Added $topbar-title-spacing: 1rem
Removed $topbar-link-color
General
Our Sass unit tests have been migrated from Bootcamp to True--thanks @colin-marshall!
The jQuery dependency in package.json has been locked to 2.1.x, like bower.json. Before, npm would allow for bumping minor versions while Bower would not. For Foundation 6.2, we'll bump our jQuery dependency to 2.2.
Features
table() mixin: added a $nest parameter. When set to true, selectors for tbody, td, etc. are nested inside the current selector. This allows you to constrain the Foundation table styles to a custom class. #7454
Flex Grid: added styles for .column.row.
Added a new variation on the syntax for top bar, which allows for a separate title area and menu area. Works great with the Responsive Toggler plugin! Learn more in the Advanced section of the top bar documentation. Thanks @brettsmason for the idea and the CSS!
