Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Eslint-config-prettier version 8.0.0 represents an update to a crucial tool for developers aiming to integrate ESLint and Prettier seamlessly in their JavaScript and TypeScript projects. This package disables ESLint rules that conflict with or are made redundant by Prettier, ensuring a consistent and well-formatted codebase automatically. Comparing version 8.0.0 with the prior stable version, 7.2.0, we observe that both maintain the same core functionality and target audience. Both versions specify a peer dependency on ESLint versions 7.0.0 or higher, indicating a continued commitment to compatibility with modern ESLint setups.

However, some changes are present too, version 8.0.0 boasts a potentially streamlined architecture, suggested by the reduced file count in the distributed package (7 files vs. 14 in version 7.2.0), and a smaller unpacked size (16558 bytes vs 16972 bytes). This might indicate internal refactoring, dependency optimization, or the removal of unnecessary files, potentially leading to slightly faster installation and a smaller overall project footprint, even though the impact is likely minimal. The important thing is how the configurations work inside of it, so developers should check that on the official changelog. Finally, version 8.0.0 was released on "2021-02-21", after version 7.2.0 that was released on "2021-01-18", so version 8.0.0 has all the fixes and enhancements that the previous version has, plus its own.
