Autoprefixer is a valuable tool for web developers aiming to write modern, cross-browser compatible CSS. These two versions, 0.7.20130808 and 0.7.20130807, showcase the rapid iteration common in software development. Both share the same core functionality: parsing CSS and automatically adding vendor prefixes, leveraging data from the "Can I Use" website to ensure compatibility across various browsers, including older versions.
The dependencies list remains identical between the two releases, employing libraries such as css-parse and css-stringify for CSS processing. Development dependencies, including testing frameworks like mocha and CSS preprocessors like stylus and nib, also remain consistent, suggesting no major changes in the development environment or testing strategy between these versions.
The key difference lies in the releaseDate. Version 0.7.20130808 was released on August 7th, 2013, at 22:42:03 UTC, while version 0.7.20130807 was released earlier on the same day at 10:31:57 UTC. This indicates that version 0.7.20130808 is essentially a patch or minor update to the earlier release. Although the specific nature of the changes isn't detailed, it might include bug fixes, minor performance improvements, or updated browser compatibility data from Can I Use. Developers should check the commit logs in the autoprefixer github repository to verify the changes. Given the small timeframe between releases, it is advisable to use the latest versions to benefit from these quick fixes.
