Babel-runtime versions 5.0.13 and 5.0.12 offer essential, self-contained runtime environments for Babel-compiled JavaScript code, ensuring compatibility across different JavaScript engines. Both versions share the same core functionality, relying on core-js (version ^0.8.0) to provide polyfills for modern JavaScript features. This dependency ensures that your Babel-transformed code can run smoothly even in older environments lacking native support for ES6+ features. Primarily authored by Sebastian McKenzie, both iterations are housed within the official Babel GitHub repository, offering developers transparency and access to the project's development history.
The key difference between the two versions lies specifically within the release date and presumably bug fixes or minor updates. Version 5.0.13 was released on April 13, 2015, a few days after version 5.0.12 released on April 8, 2015. Developers considering an upgrade will find essentially the same API and external interface between 5.0.12 and 5.0.13, but a slightly newer release may offer refinements or fixes that boost code stability. When using the library developers should always ensure the latest patches are being used with any library to ensure security and stability. The library is provided via npm and the tarball urls and ensures stability across different platforms.
