Version 7.10.4 Details

@babel/plugin-external-helpers is a Babel plugin designed to streamline code generation by consolidating shared helper functions into a single, reusable module. This approach minimizes code duplication and reduces the overall bundle size of your compiled JavaScript. Across versions 7.10.1 and 7.10.4, the core functionality of the plugin remains consistent: injecting necessary helper functions at the top of the generated code.

The primary differences between the two versions lie in their dependency updates. Version 7.10.4 upgrades its dependencies, notably @babel/helper-plugin-utils and @babel/core, to version 7.10.4. This ensures compatibility with the latest features and bug fixes within the Babel ecosystem. Developers should always aim to use the most recent stable version to benefit from these improvements, potentially resolving issues and enhancing performance. While the file count and unpacked size remain the same between both versions, the updated release date and dependency versions signal ongoing maintenance and refinement. If you're already using Babel 7 and relying on external helpers, upgrading to version 7.10.4 is a recommended practice to keep your Babel configuration up-to-date and aligned with the latest enhancements in the Babel project.
