Version 16.9.36 Details

The @types/react package provides TypeScript definitions for the popular React JavaScript library, crucial for developers aiming to leverage the benefits of static typing within their React projects. Comparing versions 16.9.36 and 16.9.35, both share the same core dependencies, 'csstype' and '@types/prop-types', ensuring compatibility and consistent type support for styling and React's PropTypes system, respectively. Both are licensed under the permissive MIT license and maintained within the DefinitelyTyped repository, guaranteeing community-driven updates and quality.

The key difference lies in their release dates and, subtly, their unpacked sizes. Version 16.9.36 was released on June 10, 2020, while 16.9.35 came out on May 11, 2020, indicating nearly a month of accumulated type definition updates and potential bug fixes in the newer version. The unpacked size of version 16.9.36 is slightly smaller (158120 bytes) than 16.9.35 (158223 bytes). While seemingly minor, this could point to refinements in the type definitions, perhaps removing redundant or unnecessary code, ultimately leading to slightly improved build times or reduced bundle sizes for consuming projects. For developers using TypeScript with React, staying up-to-date with the latest minor version of @types/react is generally recommended to benefit from the newest type definitions and any potential improvements that address specific edge cases or compatibility issues that may have arisen since the previous release. While the change log between these minor releases is not available in the provided data, the date difference justifies using the latest version, 16.9.36.
