Acorn versions 1.0.0 and 1.0.1 are both ECMAScript parsers designed for JavaScript developers needing to analyze and manipulate JavaScript code. Both versions share identical core functionality, indicated by the consistent description as an "ECMAScript parser". The devDependencies field is also the same, listing babelify, browserify, and unicode-7.0.0 with the same version constraints in both releases. This suggests the underlying development environment and testing setup remained consistent between the two versions. The repository URL, pointing to the marijnh/acorn GitHub repository, further confirms their origin and provides developers a location to explore the source code, contribute, and report issues.
The key difference between the two versions lies in their version numbers and releaseDate. Version 1.0.1 is a patch release following version 1.0.0, indicated by the final digit change. The release dates, with version 1.0.1 being released shortly after 1.0.0 (approximately 28 minutes later), indicate that version 1.0.1 likely contains bug fixes or minor improvements identified soon after the initial 1.0.0 release. Developers should upgrade to version 1.0.1 to benefit from these potential refinements, ensuring a more stable and reliable parsing experience. The dist.tarball URLs provide direct download links for each version, allowing developers to easily obtain the specific release they require.
