Version 15.0.0 Details

The @types/react package provides TypeScript definitions for the React library, enabling developers to write type-safe React code. Comparing versions 0.14.57 and 15.0.0 reveals a significant jump in versioning, aligning the type definitions with the React library's major version. This shift from 0.14.x to 15.0.0 signifies a move to support React 15, potentially introducing new type definitions and updates reflecting changes in the React API.

For developers using React, this means choosing the version of @types/react that corresponds to their installed React version is crucial. Incorrect type definitions can lead to compilation errors or runtime issues. Version 15.0.0, released in January 2017, is tailored for React 15, offering type support including components, props, and state, and covering lifecycle methods and events specific to that React version. The upgrade also likely brought improvements in type accuracy and potentially new features in React 15 reflected in its type definitions.

While both versions share the same license (MIT), repository, and authors, the targeted React version differs. Developers should always consult the @types/react changelog and React's official documentation and migration guide when upgrading, to ensure a smooth transition and understanding of any breaking changes introduced in React 15 and its corresponding type definitions. This ensures that the TypeScript code remains compatible with the updated React library.
