Version 7.16.10 Details

@babel/plugin-transform-runtime is a crucial Babel plugin designed to streamline the process of using Babel's helpers and polyfills without cluttering the global scope. Version 7.16.10 introduces subtle but important changes compared to its predecessor, version 7.16.8. Both versions aim to externalize references to helpers and built-ins, automatically polyfilling code for improved compatibility across different environments.

A key difference lies in the updated peer dependency @babel/core, which jumps from version ^7.16.7 in 7.16.8 to ^7.16.10 in the newer version. This suggests compatibility enhancements or bug fixes within the core Babel compiler that directly benefit this plugin. Furthermore, version 7.16.10 has updated @babel/preset-env to ^7.16.10 from ^7.16.8.

One notable removal in version 7.16.10 is the dev dependency @babel/plugin-transform-typeof-symbol, which was present in version 7.16.8. This suggests either a reassessment of its necessity for development or its functionalities being integrated elsewhere within the Babel ecosystem. Dev dependencies, while not impacting runtime behavior, can influence the build and testing process for developers contributing to or extending the plugin.

Developers should note the slightly smaller unpacked size of version 7.16.10 (14005 bytes compared to 14058 bytes in 7.16.8), potentially indicating minor code optimizations. Ultimately choose the latest version to leverage the newest fixes and improvements.
