@swc/core is a super-fast alternative to Babel, designed for accelerating JavaScript and TypeScript compilation. Comparing versions 1.11.7 and 1.11.6 reveals subtle but important distinctions for developers. The core dependencies and devDependencies remain consistent, featuring essential packages like @swc/types, @swc/counter, jest, cross-env, typescript, and @napi-rs/cli, ensuring a stable development environment. The peer dependency on @swc/helpers also persists, indicating a continued reliance on shared helper functions.
The key variation lies within the optionalDependencies. Both versions offer pre-built binaries optimized for different platforms (Darwin, Linux, and Windows) and architectures (x64, arm64, ia32, arm). The difference resides in the version number associated with each platform-specific binary. Version 1.11.7 uses "1.11.7" for all its optional dependencies, whereas version 1.11.6 utilizes "1.11.6". While functionally seemingly identical, this distinction is vital for ensuring compatibility and leveraging platform-specific optimizations introduced in the respective releases. The releaseDate also differs, with version 1.11.7 being released later than 1.11.6, meaning it incorporates any bug fixes or minor improvements made in the interim period. Developers should always aim for the latest stable release to benefit from these enhancements and the most up-to-date platform support. The fileCount and unpackedSize is the same for each of the 2 versions.
