Version 7.4.0 Details

@types/ws provides TypeScript definitions for the popular ws WebSocket library, crucial for developers building real-time applications with Node.js. Version 7.4.0 offers an incremental update over the previous stable version, 7.2.9, including updated type definitions which ensure better compatibility and type safety when working with ws in TypeScript projects.

While the dependency on @types/node remains consistent across both versions, the unpacked size of version 7.4.0 has increased slightly by 31 bytes compared to 7.2.9, suggesting minor adjustments or additions to the type definitions. Developers should expect a seamless update process, as the core functionality and interface of the ws library remain unaffected. The newer version simply provides improved type annotations, which assists in catching potential errors during development and improves code maintainability.

The release date of 7.4.0 being November 10, 2020, indicates that it incorporates any fixes or improvements made since the 7.2.9 release on October 28, 2020. By upgrading to the latest version, developers will benefit from all the type safety upgrades and improvements provided between those two releases. If you're using Typescript and WebSockets in your Node.js app, keeping @types/ws up-to-date is a good practice for reliable code.
