The @types/node package provides TypeScript definitions for Node.js, crucial for developers seeking type safety and enhanced tooling when working with Node.js in TypeScript projects. Version 16.18.101 was released on June 20, 2024, following closely on the heels of version 16.18.100, released on June 19, 2024. While both versions share the same core functionality – offering TypeScript definitions for Node.js APIs – a key difference lies in the unpacked size. Version 16.18.101 boasts an unpacked size of 1802104 bytes, a slight increase from version 16.18.100's 1802092 bytes. Usually, this slight change in size suggests it contains fixes of typings or additions of newly released Node.js features.
Both versions include 62 files which indicates that, despite the small size difference, the number of definitions files remain the same.
Developers using @types/node benefit from improved code completion, enhanced error detection, and a smoother development experience. The package is MIT licensed, promoting open-source collaboration and free usage. The definitions are maintained in the DefinitelyTyped repository on GitHub, ensuring community-driven updates and improvements. For TypeScript developers targeting Node.js, regularly updating to the latest version of @types/node is recommended to leverage the most accurate and comprehensive type definitions, taking incremental upgrades such as the jump from 16.18.100 to 16.18.101.
