The eslint-config-airbnb-es5 package offers an ESLint configuration mirroring the popular Airbnb JavaScript style guide, specifically tailored for ES5 projects. Version 1.2.0, released in July 2017, builds upon the foundation laid by version 1.1.0, which was released in October 2016. While both versions share the core goal of enforcing Airbnb's ES5 style conventions and rely on the strip-json-comments dependency for configuration parsing, the key difference lies in the timing of their releases.
The newer 1.2.0 version represents a more up-to-date snapshot of the Airbnb ES5 style guide as of mid-2017, potentially incorporating refinements and adjustments made in the intervening months since the older 1.1.0 version. Developers choosing between the two should consider how closely they want to adhere to the most current interpretation of Airbnb's ES5 guidelines. If maintaining strict consistency with the latest recommendations is paramount, version 1.2.0 is the preferred choice. However, if a project has an existing ESLint setup based on version 1.1.0 and no major style discrepancies are apparent, upgrading might not be strictly necessary. Both versions offer a valuable starting point for ES5 projects aiming for code quality and consistency championed by the Airbnb style guide. The dependency on strip-json-comments in both versions ensures the configuration files can include comments, enhancing readability and maintainability.
