Cssnano version 5.0.15 brings subtle yet important updates to this popular CSS minification tool built on the PostCSS ecosystem. Comparing it to the previous stable version, 5.0.14, developers will notice primarily dependency upgrades. Specifically, cssnano-preset-default has been bumped from version 5.1.9 to 5.1.10, and cssnano-preset-lite and cssnano-preset-advanced has been updated to 2.0.2 and 5.1.10 from 2.0.1 and 5.1.9 respectively. These updates likely include bug fixes, performance improvements or new features within those preset packages, contributing to more efficient and robust CSS minification.
While the core dependencies like yaml and lilconfig, and peer dependencies like postcss remain unchanged, these preset enhancements can significantly impact the final output size and compatibility of your minified CSS. Furthermore, the unpackedSize of the package has slightly increased from 8031 to 8033, which hints at minor additions of code or assets. The release date also shows that 5.0.15 was published on January 7, 2022, a few weeks after version 5.0.14. Developers should review changelogs of updated preset to fully understand the impact before upgrading. This upgrade ensures you are leveraging the latest optimizations and bug fixes for your CSS minification process.
