The npm package @types/node provides TypeScript definitions for Node.js, crucial for developers using TypeScript to build Node.js applications. Version 18.19.82 was released on March 24, 2025, succeeding version 18.19.81, which was released on March 21, 2025. Both versions share the same core dependencies, relying on undici-types version ~5.26.4 to support the undici HTTP client. The license remains MIT, and the source code is hosted on GitHub under the DefinitelyTyped repository. The distribution method is consistent, with both versions packaged as tarballs available on the npm registry.
A notable difference is the unpacked size. Version 18.19.82 has an unpacked size of 2054901 bytes, slightly larger than version 18.19.81, which has an unpacked size of 2054035 bytes. This increase, approximately 866 bytes, likely reflects minor updates or additions to the TypeScript definitions within the package. Both keep the same number of files, 74. For developers, this incremental update suggests improvements in the accuracy or completeness of type definitions, enhancing code maintainability and reducing potential runtime errors. While the core functionalities remain consistent, upgrading to the latest version ensures that developers benefit from the most up-to-date type information, leading to a smoother and more robust development experience when working with Node.js in TypeScript.
