The @types/node package provides TypeScript definitions for Node.js, essential for developers using TypeScript to build Node.js applications. Version 9.6.35, released on October 9, 2018, builds upon the previous stable version, 9.6.34, released just a few days earlier on October 3, 2018. While both versions share the same core purpose, MIT license, and lack direct dependencies, a closer look reveals subtle, yet important, differences. The most notable change is in the unpackedSize, which increased from 480015 bytes in version 9.6.34 to 480087 bytes in version 9.6.35. This suggests that version 9.6.35 includes minor updates or additions to the type definitions, potentially addressing bug fixes, refining existing definitions, or adding support for newly introduced Node.js features or APIs. Developers considering upgrading should evaluate if these changes affect their projects. The increased unpacked size usually flags some change inside the type definitions, so if you are facing an issue with your actual types, upgrading might be a good solution. Otherwise, the changes are most probably minor. Both versions contain 5 files.
