Version 14.14.39 of the @types/node package represents a minor update over the previous stable version, 14.14.38, providing TypeScript definitions for Node.js. Both versions share the same core characteristics: they offer TypeScript users type safety and autocompletion when working with Node.js APIs.
Crucially, both versions maintain a consistent license (MIT) and origin, residing within the DefinitelyTyped repository on GitHub, ensuring community-driven updates and reliability. They also share identical dependencies (none in this case).
However, a key difference exists in the unpackedSize of the package. Version 14.14.39 weighs in at 755,708 bytes when unpacked, a slight increase from version 14.14.38's 753,828 bytes. Version 14.14.39 was released later the same day a bit more than 30 minutes which means the changes contained in this version are probably minor. Both versions have the same number of files. While seemingly small, this increase suggests potential additions, modifications, or refinements to the type definitions within the package, possibly addressing bug fixes, or adding support for newly introduced Node.js functionalities. Developers should consider consulting the changelog or commit history in the DefinitelyTyped repository to pinpoint the specific changes made in 14.14.39 and assess their impact on their projects. If you aim to have the most up-to-date typings with the latest bugfixes, version 14.14.39 is the better choice.
