@babel/preset-env versions 7.11.5 and 7.11.0 are incremental updates to a core Babel package that intelligently determines the Babel plugins needed to support your target JavaScript environments. This eliminates the need to manually include individual transforms, simplifying your Babel configuration.
The primary differences between these versions reside in the minor version update, indicating bug fixes and potentially feature enhancements in dependency packages rather than breaking changes affecting the core preset functionality. Key dependencies like @babel/types, @babel/compat-data, @babel/plugin-transform-spread, @babel/plugin-proposal-optional-chaining, @babel/plugin-proposal-object-rest-spread, and @babel/plugin-proposal-logical-assignment-operators have been updated from version 7.11.0 to 7.11.5 in the latest release demonstrating that the last one has important bug fixes and some upgrades. Notably @babel/cli and @babel/core also received updates, this change could potentially improve CLI usage and internal functionalities. Developers will benefit from these updates through enhanced compatibility with newer JavaScript features, improved performance, and bug fixes.
For developers already using @babel/preset-env, upgrading to 7.11.5 is generally recommended to leverage these improvements, ensuring your code is accurately translated to supported environments and runs seamlessly. Before updating developers are encouraged to review their current Babel configuration and test their codebase after upgrading to confirm compatibility. These updates maintain Babel's commitment to keeping pace with JavaScript evolution and offer a streamlined and intelligent approach to code transformation.
