Acorn version 4.0.10 represents a minor update to the popular ECMAScript parser, building upon the foundation laid by version 4.0.9. Both versions share the same core functionality as robust JavaScript parsers, essential for tools like linters, code transformers (e.g., Babel), and browser developer tools. They also share the same development dependencies including "rollup", "unicode-9.0.0", and "rollup-plugin-buble", indicating a consistent build and testing environment. The licensing remains MIT, a permissive license promoting broad usage and modification. The GitHub repository URL stays consistent, ensuring developers know where to find the source code and contribute.
The key difference lies in the release date, with version 4.0.10 being published on February 7, 2017, a day after version 4.0.9. This suggests that 4.0.10 is likely a patch release, addressing potential bugs or minor improvements identified in 4.0.9. For developers using Acorn, upgrading to 4.0.10 is generally recommended to benefit from these fixes, ensuring a more stable and reliable parsing experience. While the specific nature of the changes isn't detailed in the provided metadata, such incremental updates contribute to the overall maturity and trustworthiness of the library. The "dist" section confirms the availability of both versions on the npm registry, making them easily accessible for installation via standard npm commands.
