Version 15.5.0 Details

The @types/react-dom package provides TypeScript definitions for the React DOM library, enabling developers to write type-safe React code. Examining versions 0.14.23 and 15.5.0 reveals some key differences relevant to TypeScript users.

Version 15.5.0, released in April 2017, represents a significant update compared to version 0.14.23, released in February 2017. While both versions share the core purpose of providing TypeScript definitions and declare a dependency on @types/react (allowing compatibility with appropriate React versions), the later version lacks explicit author information. This might indicate a shift in maintainership or a consolidation of contributions. The critical factor is the implied React version support. A jump from 0.14.x to 15.5.0 in the type definition directly mirrors and supports corresponding React DOM releases. This means developers using React DOM 15.5.0 should use the corresponding @types/react-dom version to ensure type compatibility and avoid potential errors. Using outdated type definitions can lead to incorrect type checking, undermining the benefits of TypeScript. Developers should always strive to align the versions of @types/react-dom and React DOM being used in their projects to maintain type safety. Upgrading from 0.14.23 to 15.5.0 is essential when upgrading the underlying react-dom dependency to avoid type mismatches.
