The @babel/plugin-proposal-decorators package, crucial for compiling class and object decorators to ES5, saw a release of version 7.14.2 following version 7.13.15. Developers will find that the primary modifications reside within the dependencies section, specifically involving internal Babel helper packages. Version 7.14.2 upgrades "@babel/helper-create-class-features-plugin" from version 7.13.11 to 7.14.2, aligning it with the core Babel version used for development. Simultaneously, "@babel/core" as a devDependency is also updated to 7.14.2, ensuring consistency in the development environment.
These updates suggest internal improvements and bug fixes related to class features and decorator handling. While the core functionality of compiling decorators remains consistent, developers might experience enhanced stability and potentially better performance in specific decorator scenarios with the newer version. The unpacked size decreased slightly from 12819 to 12671. For those already using version 7.13.15, upgrading to 7.14.2 is advisable to benefit from these refinements, especially if encountering issues related to complex class structures or decorator interactions. No breaking changes were introduced, easing the upgrade process.
