@types/node versions 12.12.36 and 12.12.35 provide TypeScript definitions for Node.js, essential tools for developers using TypeScript with Node.js. Both versions share the same MIT license and are sourced from the DefinitelyTyped repository on GitHub, specifically from the types/node directory. This ensures developers can readily access the type definitions needed for type-safe Node.js development with TypeScript. Key identical aspects include their core function, the repository location, the licensing terms, and the absence of explicit dependencies, highlighting their purpose as pure type definition packages.
The most notable difference lies in their release dates and unpacked size. Version 12.12.36 arrived on April 17, 2020, about nine days after version 12.12.35, which was released on April 8, 2020. The newer version slightly increases in unpacked size to 690451 bytes compared to the older version's 690126 bytes. Both have the same number of fileCount which means that definitions inside the files have changed. This suggests minor updates, likely bug fixes, enhanced type accuracy, or subtle additions to the API definitions to better reflect Node.js features. Developers should upgrade to version 12.12.36 for the latest refinements and potentially improved type safety during development. While the changes might be incremental, staying current ensures compatibility and takes advantage of the most precise type information for Node.js programming.
