The npm package es6-set provides a polyfill for the ECMAScript 6 Set data structure, ensuring compatibility in environments that don't natively support it. Examining versions 0.1.3 and 0.1.4 reveals subtle but important updates for developers relying on this polyfill. The core functionality remains consistent, providing a robust Set implementation. Both versions share the same core dependencies like d (for property descriptors), es6-iterator and es6-symbol which handle iterator and symbol functionality, and event-emitter for event handling, ensuring a reliable base. Development dependencies for testing and linting, such as tad, xlint, and xlint-jslint-medikoo, are also identical, demonstrating a consistent approach to code quality.
The primary difference lies in the es5-ext dependency. Version 0.1.4 upgrades to es5-ext ~0.10.11 from es5-ext ~0.10.8 in version 0.1.3. es5-ext offers extensions to ECMAScript 5 functionalities, improving overall compatibility and potentially addressing bug fixes or performance improvements. This update is crucial for developers aiming for broader compatibility, as it incorporates the enhancements and fixes present in the newer version of es5-ext. While the changes might seem incremental, especially as the major and minor version numbers stay the same, these patch updates often include important refinements. Developers should upgrade to version 0.1.4 to benefit from the improved es5-ext compatibility and ensure their Set polyfill is running with the latest underlying utilities, released January 19, 2016.
