The eslint-config-next package provides a pre-configured ESLint setup tailored for Next.js applications. Comparing versions 15.1.6 and 15.1.5, the core functionality remains consistent, offering a standardized linting experience. Both versions leverage a suite of popular ESLint plugins including eslint-plugin-react, eslint-plugin-import, and eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y to enforce best practices for React development, import handling, and accessibility. Crucially, both rely on @next/eslint-plugin-next, which contains rules specific to Next.js, ensuring proper usage of Next.js features and preventing common errors. TypeScript support is also robust, depending on @typescript-eslint/parser and @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin with compatible versions ranging from ^5.4.2 to ^8.0.0, accommodating various TypeScript project configurations.
The primary distinction lies in the version of the @next/eslint-plugin-next dependency itself, moving from 15.1.5 to 15.1.6. This indicates that version 15.1.6 includes updates, bug fixes, or potentially new linting rules specific to Next.js 15.1.6 features. Developers should upgrade to the latest version (15.1.6) to ensure accurate linting that aligns perfectly with the specific Next.js version they're using and benefit from any recent improvements to the Next.js ESLint plugin. The "releaseDate" also changed: from "2025-01-17T12:46:36.999Z" to "2025-01-22T11:00:44.317Z", so it seems that there was some bug fix or another new important feature, and the newer version is recommended.
