@types/ws provides TypeScript definitions for the popular 'ws' library, enabling developers to use WebSockets within their TypeScript projects with enhanced type safety and autocompletion. Version 7.2.6, released on June 29, 2020, is a minor update from version 7.2.5, released on June 4, 2020. Both versions share the same core dependencies, relying on "@types/node" for Node.js environment definitions. The licensing remains consistent as MIT, and the source code is maintained within the DefinitelyTyped repository on GitHub under the types/ws directory. The update introduces a slight increase in the unpacked size from 15613 bytes in version 7.2.5 to 15632 bytes in version 7.2.6, suggesting potential minor additions or modifications to the type definitions. For developers using 'ws' in TypeScript projects, upgrading to version 7.2.6 ensures access to the latest type definitions, which may include fixes or improvements for better compatibility and accuracy. While the changes are likely subtle, keeping type definitions up-to-date is a good practice for maintaining code quality and preventing potential type-related errors. The file count remains at 4 for both versions, indicating that the update didn't involve adding new files. Developers should check the changelog or commit history on the DefinitelyTyped GitHub repository for specific details on the changes included in version 7.2.6.
