eslint-plugin-standard provides ESLint rules that enforce the coding style of StandardJS, a popular and opinionated JavaScript style guide. Comparing versions 4.0.2 and 4.0.1 reveals some key updates relevant to developers.
The most significant change lies in the required ESLint version. Version 4.0.2 bumps the eslint devDependency to "^7.0.0", whereas version 4.0.1 uses "^6.1.0". Developers upgrading to 4.0.2 must ensure their projects are compatible with ESLint 7 or higher. This update likely incorporates adjustments to maintain compatibility with ESLint's evolving API and feature set, enabling access to the latest linting capabilities.
Another notable difference is the author information. While version 4.0.1 credits Jamund Ferguson, version 4.0.2 lists Feross Aboukhadijeh as the author, with an updated email and URL. This author transition may signal a change in maintainership or primary contributions to the project. Additionally Feross added funding URLs to Github Sponsors, Patreon and a direct consulting URL
Finally, the package size exhibits a minor change. The unpacked size of version 4.0.2 is 28365 bytes, subtly larger than version 4.0.1's 27934 bytes. This increase typically indicates added features, rule adjustments, or internal code modifications. Also the release date went from 2019-08-19 to 2020-10-22.
Developers should carefully examine these version changes to ensure smooth integration and maintain compatibility with their existing ESLint configurations and project dependencies.
