Version 7.1.5 Details

@babel/preset-env is a powerful tool that allows developers to use the latest JavaScript features while ensuring compatibility with different browser environments. The update from version 7.1.0 to 7.1.5 brings several refinements and bug fixes. Primarily, there is a key change in the dependency @babel/plugin-transform-block-scoping. Version 7.1.5 introduces an update to this dependency, while the previous version 7.1.0 used an older version with number 7.0.0. This ensures more accurate and reliable block scoping transformations, essential for modern JavaScript code that relies heavily on let and const.

Furthermore, there are updates to the developer dependencies, notably @babel/cli which gets bumped from "^7.0.0" to "^7.1.5", and compat-table whose commit in the repository changed. This is important because developers compiling code using Babel will benefit from the latest improvements and features in the Babel command-line interface. The electron-to-chromium dependency also saw an update, moving from version 1.3.55 to 1.3.79, reflecting advancements in Electron's Chromium integration, relevant for developers targeting Electron environments.

The core functionalities and underlying set of plugins for the preset remain largely the same. This means that migration should be straightforward and the core purpose of translating modern JavaScript syntax into browser-compatible code will remain the same. Users upgrading can expect more robust and up-to-date support for block scoping, along with potential performance and stability benefits from the improved tooling dependencies, without any breaking changes related to core feature set.
