csstree-validator is a CSS validation tool built upon the csstree project, offering developers a convenient way to ensure the correctness and quality of their CSS code. Comparing versions 1.4.0 and 1.3.1, several subtle differences exist. Both versions share the same core dependencies like clap for command-line argument parsing, and development dependencies such as jscs, mocha, and eslint for code style checking, testing, and linting respectively. The license remains MIT, and the repository and author information are consistent.
The key difference lies in the css-tree dependency. Version 1.4.0 upgrades to css-tree version 1.0.0-alpha.29 from 1.0.0-alpha.28 in version 1.3.1. This indicates that version 1.4.0 incorporates the latest features, bug fixes, and performance improvements introduced in the newer alpha release of css-tree. Developers should review the css-tree changelog for alpha.29 to understand the specific changes included and assess their impact. Additionally, note the slight size difference. Version 1.4.0 shows a lower unpacked size of 31988 compared to 1.3.1's 32323, potentially suggesting minor file optimization within the package. Finally, version 1.4.0 was released on May 30, 2018, while version 1.3.1 was released on February 19, 2018 which helps user determine which version they want to use based on date they are building their project. Potential users can leverage csstree-validator to perform static analysis of CSS, identifying syntax errors, invalid properties or values, and other common issues.
