Eslint-plugin-react-hooks has released version 4.1.0, a subtle but noteworthy update from the previous stable version 4.0.8. Both versions provide ESLint rules specifically designed for React Hooks, helping developers enforce best practices and catch potential errors in their React code, leading to cleaner and more maintainable applications. With a MIT license, the library remains open and accessible for all developers. The packages are part of the Facebook React repository on GitHub, ensuring alignment with the React team's recommendations. Peer dependencies remain consistent, requiring ESLint versions 3.x through 7.x, indicating a broad compatibility range for existing ESLint configurations. TypeScript users will appreciate the continued support via @typescript-eslint/parser.
While the core functionality remains the same, the key difference lies in the dist section. Version 4.1.0 has a slightly larger unpacked size (118294 bytes) compared to 4.0.8 (114359 bytes), suggesting minor enhancements, bug fixes, or rule adjustments may have been incorporated. This increase may also hint at improved performance, or added internal checks related to React hooks, although the exact nature of the changes isn't explicitly detailed. Further review using the tarball direct link allows developers to review the CHANGELOG or code differences between the 2 versions. Finally, the release date of 4.1.0 is August 17, 2020, indicating it incorporates the latest changes after July 13, 2020 when 4.0.8 was released. Developers should upgrade to version 4.1.0 to benefit from these incremental improvements.
