Version 3.42.0 Details

Core-js is a widely used JavaScript standard library providing polyfills for modern ECMAScript features, ensuring compatibility across different JavaScript environments. Version 3.42.0 introduces incremental improvements over the previous stable release, 3.41.0. Both versions maintain the same MIT license, author, and funding information, indicating continued support and community involvement. The core functionality remains consistent, focusing on providing essential JavaScript features to older browsers and Node.js versions.

A noteworthy difference is the increase in file count from 3577 to 3578 and the unpacked size from 1265563 bytes to 1272681 bytes, suggesting the addition of new polyfills, bug fixes, or minor enhancements. Developers should explore the changelog for a detailed breakdown of these changes. The updated release date for version 3.42.0, April 29, 2025, is approximately two months after the release of version 3.41.0, March 1, 2025. Core-js tackles crucial compatibility for features like promises, iterators, and more, empowering developers to use future-proof JavaScript syntax across varied platforms. Keeping core-js updated ensures that your applications can leverage the latest JavaScript capabilities while maintaining broad browser support. Consider the specific feature requirements of your project to determine if the updates in version 3.42.0 justify upgrading from version 3.41.0.
