Core-js version 3.23.1 is a minor update to the popular "core-js" JavaScript standard library, building upon the foundation laid by version 3.23.0. Both versions share the same core description as a standard library under the MIT license, and are available on GitHub. They also use Open Collective for funding.
The key difference lies in the details of the distribution package. While both versions contain the same number of files (3085), version 3.23.1 has a slightly larger unpacked size of 1001766 bytes compared to 3.23.0's 1001607 bytes; meaning that there are possibly bug fixes or small code improvements to the library. Also, the release date of the newer version is June 14, 2022, a single day after version 3.23.0 was released (June 13, 2022).
For developers utilizing core-js, this suggests that version 3.23.1 likely incorporates bug fixes, minor improvements, or dependency updates addressing issues discovered shortly after the release of 3.23.0. Users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest patch release to benefit from these fixes and ensure the stability of their applications. While the change in unpacked size is minimal, staying current with minor version updates is a general best practice to maintain a healthy and secure project.
