Version 2.1.0 Details

Bytes is a small but powerful utility designed to simplify the process of parsing and formatting byte sizes in JavaScript environments, both in Node.js and in the browser. The library provides versatile functions to convert human-readable byte size strings (like '1KB', '5MB', '2GB') into their numerical byte equivalents, and vice versa, and to format numbers of bytes into human-readable strings.

Comparing version 2.1.0 with the immediately preceding stable release, version 2.0.2, reveals that the core functionality remains consistent. Both versions maintain the same fundamental purpose and offer similar features for byte manipulation. The packages share identical descriptions, development dependencies (mocha for testing), licensing (MIT), repository details, and author information, indicating a strong continuity in development and maintenance under TJ Holowaychuk.

However, the key distinction lies in the release date. Version 2.1.0 was published on May 22, 2015, approximately one day after version 2.0.2, published on May 21, 2015. This suggests that version 2.1.0 likely includes minor bug fixes, performance improvements, or very small feature enhancements over its predecessor. While the specific changes aren't detailed in the provided data, developers should consider upgrading to the newer version (2.1.0) for the latest improvements. Given the minimal time difference, the upgrade process should be seamless for most users, ensuring they benefit from any optimizations or patches. It's important to consult the project's commit history or changelog for precise details on the changes implemented between these versions.
