The @types/node package provides TypeScript definitions for Node.js, enabling developers to write type-safe Node.js applications. Version 14.18.47, released on May 13, 2023, is a minor update compared to the immediately preceding stable version, 14.18.46, released on May 8, 2023. Both versions maintain the same core characteristics, including being licensed under MIT, having no dependencies, and residing within the DefinitelyTyped repository on GitHub. They also share an identical file count of 95 within their distributed packages.
The key difference lies in a slight increase in the unpacked size of the distribution. Version 14.18.47 boasts an unpacked size of 1,580,842 bytes, marginally larger than version 14.18.46's 1,577,122 bytes. This suggests that the update incorporates additions or modifications, which add around 3KB, likely representing minor fixes, updated type definitions, or expanded coverage for Node.js APIs.
For developers using these type definitions, upgrading to version 14.18.47 is recommended to benefit from the latest, most accurate type information. While the changes might appear minimal, they can contribute to improved code clarity, reduced runtime errors, and a more seamless development experience, especially when working with recent Node.js features or APIs. Keeping your @types/node package up-to-date ensures optimal type safety within your TypeScript Node.js projects.
