The @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin has released version 8.8.1, succeeding version 8.8.0. Both versions are TypeScript plugins for ESLint, enabling developers to lint TypeScript code effectively. The core functionalities remain consistent, aimed at enhancing code quality and consistency within TypeScript projects. Key dependencies like ignore, graphemer, ts-api-utils, @eslint-community/regexpp and @typescript-eslint/* family are kept up-to-date to ensure compatibility and leverage the latest improvements in their respective ecosystems.
The most notable difference lies in the increment of the internal @typescript-eslint/* packages to version 8.8.1 which likely includes bug fixes, performance improvements, and potentially minor feature additions. The unpacked size has slightly increased from 2662171 to 2662690, hinting at code additions/modifications which justify the bug fixes or other minor features.
Developers integrating or upgrading to version 8.8.1 should see enhanced stability and potentially benefit from improvements in rule performance and accuracy. Keeping abreast of these incremental updates ensures a smoother TypeScript linting experience, minimizing potential issues and maximizing code maintainability. Given that the peer dependencies for ESLint and @typescript-eslint/parser remain the same, the upgrade process should be relatively straightforward for users within those versions: ESLint at "^8.57.0 || ^9.0.0" and @typescript-eslint/parser at "^8.0.0 || ^8.0.0-alpha.0". The release date of the latest version is October 7, 2024.
