Notably, core-js-compat jumps from version 3.37.1 to 3.38.1, indicating enhanced compatibility data for modern JavaScript features and their support across various browsers and runtimes. Several internal Babel plugin dependencies have also been bumped to newer versions, generally to the 7.25.x range in the newer version, ensuring that the preset is leveraging the latest advancements and bug fixes within the Babel project itself. These upgrades include @babel/compat-data, which feeds into the logic determining what transformations are needed.
Developers upgrading to 7.25.7 can expect smoother support for newer JavaScript syntax and features and benefit from bug fixes and performance tweaks integrated within the updated Babel plugins. The release incorporates the freshest compatibility data, translating to a more precise transformation process that minimizes unnecessary transpilation, potentially leading to smaller bundle sizes and improved runtime performance. Be aware some of these updates include bug fixes focused on particular browser versions, so if you had issues transpiling to certain targeted browser versions, it may be worthwhile to upgrade.
