ESLint version 7.3.0 represents a minor upgrade over version 7.2.0, offering refinements and adjustments beneficial for JavaScript developers. A key difference lies in the replacement of the inquirer dependency in version 7.2.0 with enquirer in version 7.3.0. This change might impact developers who directly interact with ESLint's CLI and rely on interactive prompts during configuration or rule customization.
Looking at the metadata, version 7.3.0 shows a slight increase in fileCount and unpackedSize compared to version 7.2.0 suggesting additions or modifications to the core files. Importantly, ESLint's core dependencies remain largely consistent between the two versions, ensuring a relatively stable and predictable upgrade path for users already using ESLint for their linting needs. Both versions share the same core linters and parsers, like espree, and utility libraries such as lodash and semver.
Developers should generally upgrade to the latest minor version to benefit from bug fixes, performance improvements, and potentially new features, if any released. Always check the official changelog for detailed insights into specific changes to ensure compatibility with their existing ESLint configurations and custom rules. The releaseDate provides a timeline context: version 7.3.0 arriving roughly two weeks after 7.2.0, indicating an active development cycle, further encouraging frequent updates.
