Version 5.0.5 Details

Cssnano version 5.0.5 represents a subtle but important update to the popular CSS minification tool. The core functionality, centered around modular CSS minification atop the PostCSS ecosystem, remains consistent. The key changes become apparent when examining the dependency updates. Specifically, cssnano-preset-default, the curated set of optimizations, has been bumped from version 5.1.1 to 5.1.2. This likely incorporates bug fixes or minor enhancements to the default minification process. Developers should be aware of this update as it could influence the output of their minified CSS.

Another notable difference lies in the devDependencies. Autoprefixer, a crucial tool for adding vendor prefixes, has been updated from version 10.0.2 to 10.2.0. This signifies enhanced support for newer CSS features and better compatibility with modern browsers. While Autoprefixer is a dev dependency, and doesn't directly impact the library's runtime, upgrading it means that developers can handle and manage more recent CSS syntax.

Developers considering upgrading to version 5.0.5 will likely experience an evolution rather than a revolution. The update to cssnano-preset-default is the critical change to assess. Reviewing release notes for both cssnano-preset-default 5.1.2 and Autoprefixer 10.2.0 is recommended to determine if the fixes or new features benefit their project. The tarball size in 5.0.5 has decreased and fileCount as well with a big reduction in unpacked size.
