A full version history of the @typescript-eslint/parser package with size, number of distributed files and dependency evolution.
The @typescript-eslint/parser package, a crucial component for linting TypeScript code with ESLint, has undergone extensive development since its initial release. Beginning with version 0.1.0 in January 2019, the package rapidly iterated through early releases, refining its core dependencies and leveraging typescript-estree.
The 1.x series quickly followed with adjustments to peer dependencies, notably ESLint, and saw increased adoption. Version 2.0.0 marked a shift, widening ESLint peer dependency support to include version 6. The 3.x and 4.x lines are characterized by regular feature increments .
The 5.x stream transitioned to declaring the MIT license (BSD-2-Clause license for older versions) and smaller dependency footprint indicated increased optimization. Marked by shorter release cycles and dependency updates, this demonstrated active maintainership and adaption with Typescript's evolutions.
The 6.x, 7.x and 8.x series show an ongoing commitment to staying current with ESLint and TypeScript's latest features, illustrated from dependencies, while maintaining a streamlined core. These versions ensure compatibility and provide developers dependable tools. The project's consistent updates and versioning exemplify a reliable practice and focus on maintaining relevance.
