Deferred version 0.7.11 represents a minor update to the popular Promises implementation, building upon the solid foundation established in version 0.7.10. Key changes are evident in updated dependencies, reflecting adjustments for compatibility and potentially improved performance or security fixes within those underlying libraries. Specifically, d, es5-ext, and timers-ext have seen their dependency specifications updated from more restrictive ranges (e.g., 1 or ~0.10.37) to more flexible compatible versions, like ^1.0.1, ^0.10.50 and ^0.1.7 respectively. The next-tick dependency also transitioned from a fixed version (1) to ^1.0.0.
The developer experience is also enhanced in version 0.7.11 through updated development dependencies. Notably, newer versions of eslint, eslint-config-medikoo, git-list-updated, husky, lint-staged, and prettier-elastic are included, suggesting a commitment to code quality, consistent styling, and streamlined development workflows. The license changed from MIT to ISC.
While the unpacked size and file count sees a minimal increase in 0.7.11, this is likely inconsequential for most use cases, indicating that the core functionality and performance footprint remain largely unchanged. Existing users of deferred should review their dependency constraints and test their applications with the updated version to ensure compatibility. The updated development tooling signals a maturation of the project and a focus on developer productivity. The release date of 0.7.11 is significantly later than 0.7.10, indicating active maintenance and responsiveness to the evolving JavaScript ecosystem.
