Browserify 16.3.0 introduces subtle improvements over version 16.2.3, primarily affecting internal file counts and unpacked sizes. While the core functionality remains consistent, developers should note the slight reduction in the new version's unpacked size (362259 vs 363035), hinting at potential optimizations or minor code adjustments.
The dependency lists for both versions are identical, encompassing crucial libraries such as module-deps, browser-pack, and insert-module-globals, which are fundamental to Browserify's core task of bundling Node.js-style modules for browser deployment. Similarly, the development dependencies, including testing frameworks like tap and utilities such as semver, hold steady, suggesting a focus on maintaining existing functionality rather than introducing groundbreaking changes.
For developers already using Browserify, the upgrade to 16.3.0 presents a low-risk opportunity to potentially benefit from under-the-hood improvements and bug fixes, if any, without necessitating significant code modifications. Those new to Browserify will find both versions equally capable of resolving require() calls in browser-targeted JavaScript, processing dependencies, and creating single, optimized bundles. The consistent API and dependency landscape across these versions ensure a smooth learning curve and predictable behavior.
