Version 2.4.1 Details

Core-js version 2.4.1 is a minor update to version 2.4.0 of this widely used JavaScript standard library. Both versions share the same fundamental purpose: providing polyfills for modern JavaScript features, enabling developers to use these features across a broader range of environments, especially older browsers or Node.js versions lacking native support. Both releases depend on the same core toolchain for development, leveraging tools like Grunt, Webpack, and ESLint.

A key difference lies in the updated versions of its testing and linting dependencies. Version 2.4.1 upgrades Karma to version 1.1.x, QUnitjs to 2.0.x and ESLint to 3.1.x, which indicates a commitment to up-to-date testing and code quality standards. Whereas version 2.4.0 uses Karma 0.13.x, QUnitjs 1.23.x and ESLint 2.9.x. While the core functionalities of core-js remain consistent between the two releases, the updated testing and linting infrastructure in version 2.4.1 likely contribute to better stability and fewer bugs. For developers, this translates to greater confidence in the library's reliability and reduced risk of encountering compatibility issues or unexpected behavior.
