Version 10.2.1 Details

Autoprefixer, a widely used PostCSS plugin, automatically adds vendor prefixes to CSS rules, ensuring compatibility across different browsers based on data from Can I Use. Comparing versions 10.2.1 and 10.2.0, the core functionality remains consistent: parsing CSS and applying prefixes. Both versions rely on the same dependencies, including colorette for colorful console output, fraction.js for handling fractional values, browserslist for targeting specific browsers, caniuse-lite for browser compatibility data, normalize-range for range normalization, and postcss-value-parser for parsing CSS values. They also share the same peer dependency, postcss, requiring version 8.1.0 or higher.

The key difference lies in the update. Version 10.2.1 boasts a slightly larger unpacked size (250147 bytes) compared to version 10.2.0 (249539 bytes), suggesting minor enhancements or bug fixes. More importantly, version 10.2.1 was released on January 8th, 2021, while version 10.2.0 was released two days before. Developers opting for the newer version benefit from the latest refinements and potentially addressed issues, ensuring a more robust and up-to-date experience. While the core functionality hasn't been dramatically altered, staying current with package versions is generally recommended for stability and access to the most recent improvements, if any. Regular updates to Autoprefixer are crucial for developers to take advantage of the most recent browser compatibility data from Can I Use, as it will ensure prefixes are added accordingly, keeping your website accessible to the widest range of users.
