Version 1.6.0 of the css package brings notable updates to its core dependencies, css-parse and css-stringify, which are the engine of the parsing and stringification functionalities of the library. Specifically, css-parse is upgraded to version 1.7.0 from 1.6.0, and css-stringify moves to version 1.4.1 from 1.3.2. These dependency updates likely involve bug fixes, performance improvements, and potentially new features within the parsing and stringification processes. Developers leveraging css for CSS manipulation should see enhanced reliability and efficiency in converting CSS strings to abstract syntax trees (ASTs) and back. The release date is 2013-12-23.
Compared to the older 1.4.4 version, which relies on older versions of css-parse (1.6.0) and css-stringify (1.3.2), version 1.6.0 offers an incremental improvement. While the fundamental purpose of the library remains the same, this upgrade ensures developers benefit from the advancements and refinements made in the underlying parsing and stringification algorithms. Those using css in performance-sensitive applications or those facing edge-case parsing issues might find the updated dependencies particularly beneficial. Existing users should verify compatibility of their code with these newer versions of css-parse and css-stringify. The older version was released 2 months before, on 2013-10-18.
