Version 14.18.61 Details

"@types/node" version 14.18.61 represents a minor update to the TypeScript definitions for Node.js, succeeding version 14.18.60. Both versions, licensed under MIT, provide crucial type information for developers using Node.js with TypeScript, enabling static type checking and improved code completion within their IDEs. They don't declare any explicit dependencies, indicating a standalone nature focused purely on type definitions. The source code for these definitions resides within the "types/node" directory of the DefinitelyTyped repository on GitHub, a collaborative project that maintains TypeScript definitions for numerous JavaScript libraries.

The observable differences between the two versions lie in their release date and potentially minor adjustments to the type definitions themselves. Version 14.18.61 was released on September 16, 2023, following the release of version 14.18.60 on September 15, 2023. Furthermore, version 14.18.61 reflects a slight increase in the unpacked size, going from 1582096 to 1582541. This suggests subtle modifications or additions to the type declarations, likely addressing inaccuracies, omissions, or supporting new Node.js features or APIs. Though the fileCount remains the same at 95, the increase in the unpackedSize suggests refactorings in the files, or subtle adjustments in the code.

For developers using TypeScript with Node.js, upgrading to the latest @types/node version is generally recommended. These incremental updates often incorporate fixes reported by the community and enhance the accuracy or coverage of the type definitions, ultimately improving the developer experience and code quality. Always check the changelog for detailed information.
