The @babel/plugin-proposal-function-bind package, a Babel plugin designed to transform the function bind operator (::) into ES5-compatible code, saw a release of version 7.12.1 on October 15, 2020, following the previous stable version 7.11.5 released on August 31, 2020. Both versions maintain the same core functionality of compiling the function bind operator and share the same MIT license. A key difference lies within their dependencies. Version 7.12.1 updates its dependency on @babel/plugin-syntax-function-bind to "^7.12.1", aligning it with the plugin's version and potentially incorporating syntax-related bug fixes or improvements. Furthermore, the development dependency @babel/core is updated to "^7.12.1" reflecting the latest core functionalities and enhancing the testing and development environment for the plugin. This keeps the plugin up-to-date with the core Babel transformations and features. The previous release, 7.11.5, depended on @babel/plugin-syntax-function-bind version "^7.10.4" and @babel/core version "^7.11.5". While both versions have a similar unpacked size, a subtle difference exists (4488 vs 4546), suggesting minor changes or optimizations within the newer release. Developers using @babel/plugin-proposal-function-bind should consider upgrading to version 7.12.1 to benefit from the aligned syntax support and potentially enhanced stability offered by the updated @babel/core dependency. To conclude, both versions are useful but for developers it will be better the last one
