Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Autoprefixer is a widely used PostCSS plugin that automatically adds vendor prefixes to CSS rules, ensuring compatibility across different browsers. Comparing versions 10.4.11 and 10.4.10, the core functionality remains consistent: both versions parse CSS and apply prefixes based on data from "Can I Use," enabling developers to write clean, future-proof CSS without manually managing browser-specific implementations. Both versions include standard dependencies such as picocolors, fraction.js, browserslist, caniuse-lite, normalize-range, and postcss-value-parser which are all essential for its operations. It also maintains peer dependency on postcss version ^8.1.0.

The key difference lies in the release date and potentially bug fixes or minor updates incorporated in the newer version, 10.4.11, released on September 14, 2022, compared to version 10.4.10, released on September 13, 2022. The unpacked size has also slightly increased from 197266 to 197913, which might indicate some updated data in caniuse-lite or code changes. While the API and overall functionality remain identical for most developers, the newer version is generally recommended as it often includes improvements and bug fixes that enhance stability and performance. Developers incorporating Autoprefixer into their projects should prioritize using the latest stable version to benefit from these potential enhancements and ensure optimal CSS compatibility.
