Bootstrap version 3.4.1 is a minor patch release in the 3.x series of this popular front-end framework, building upon the solid foundation established by version 3.4.0. While both versions offer the same core functionality for building responsive, mobile-first web projects, the key differences lie in updated development dependencies and build-time tools.
Specifically, Bootstrap 3.4.1 includes an updated autoprefixer dependency, moving from version 9.4.2 to 9.4.7, and replace-in-file updated from version 3.4.2 to 3.4.3. Furthermore, karma-browserstack-launcher has been updated from version 1.3.0 to 1.4.0. These updates primarily benefit developers involved in the build process and automated testing. For example, the autoprefixer update likely addresses vendor prefix compatibility ensuring wider browser support for CSS styles, while replace-in-file updates might include bug fixes. Users who simply include the pre-built CSS and JavaScript files will experience the same familiar Bootstrap experience. However, developers integrating the source files into their own build pipelines should note the updated dependency versions to maintain a consistent and error-free build. The update also includes an increase in the unpacked size, going from 2247634 to 2259047 which might be an indicator of more complete code or some bug fixing adjustments. Finally from the releaseDate property we can see that there is a gap of two months between the releases.
