Version 5.1.2 Details

@types/ws provides TypeScript definitions for the popular WebSocket library, ws, enabling developers to leverage the benefits of static typing when working with WebSockets in their TypeScript projects. Version 5.1.2 updates the type definitions from version 5.1.1, offering potential improvements in type accuracy and developer experience. A key indicator of improvements in the newer version (5.1.2) can be the slight difference in unpackedSize compared to version 5.1.1 (12433 bytes vs 12339 bytes for the older release), implying minor changes to the type definitions themselves. Although both share identical dependencies on @types/node and @types/events, ensuring compatibility with standard Node.js event handling, the newer release likely incorporates fixes or enhancements that contribute to better type safety or code completion within IDEs. Developers upgrading from 5.1.1 should anticipate potentially more accurate type hints and fewer type-related errors during compilation. Also worth noting is the release date, with version 5.1.2 released approximately a month later than 5.1.1, providing a small window for bug fixes and improvements based on community feedback. Always review the official changelog of @types/ws or DefinitelyTyped for a comprehensive list of changes and potential breaking changes before upgrading.
