@babel/parser version 7.9.3, released on March 22, 2020, is a minor update to the JavaScript parser, following version 7.9.2 which was released just a day prior on March 21, 2020. Both versions share identical descriptions, declaring themselves as a JavaScript parser, and maintain the same core development dependencies, including "charcodes," "@babel/code-frame," "@babel/helper-fixtures," and "@babel/helper-validator-identifier." The author and license information are also consistent between the two versions, remaining under the MIT license and attributed to Sebastian McKenzie.
The key differences lie in the "dist" section, which details the distribution package. Version 7.9.3 exhibits a significantly smaller file count (8 compared to 39) and a smaller unpacked size (1,434,835 bytes compared to 1,845,137 bytes) than version 7.9.2. This suggests that version 7.9.3 likely contains optimizations or removals of unnecessary files, potentially leading to faster installation and a smaller dependency footprint for developers integrating the parser into their projects. For developers, this optimization in 7.9.3 makes it a preferable choice. Both version can be found at the same repository URL and provide the same core functionality.
