Version 7.22.2 Details

@babel/preset-env 7.22.2 and 7.22.1 are very similar, with the primary distinction being a minor version bump that signals bug fixes and small improvements. Core functionality remains consistent. Developers using this preset to transpile modern JavaScript for older environments will find that both versions offer robust support for specifying target environments and automatically including necessary Babel plugins.

The dependency lists are nearly identical, indicating no significant shifts in the underlying tools used by the preset. The only noticeable difference is the update of babel-plugin-polyfill-corejs2 from version 0.4.1 to 0.4.2. This suggests a targeted fix or enhancement related to polyfilling functionalities for core-js version 2. While seemingly minor, this update potentially improves backwards compatibility for projects heavily reliant on core-js 2 polyfills.

Both versions maintain the same peer dependency on @babel/core (version ^7.0.0-0), ensuring compatibility with a wide range of Babel core versions. Developers can upgrade from 7.22.1 to 7.22.2 with minimal risk of breaking changes, especially if utilizing core-js 2. For those not using core-js 2 polyfills, the update might not be critical, but is still recommended to benefit from the latest bug fixes and potential performance tweaks within the babel-plugin-polyfill-corejs2 dependency. Keep in mind that @babel/preset-env simplifies the configuration of Babel by intelligently including only the necessary transformations and polyfills for the specified target environments, optimizing bundle sizes and build times.
