Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin is a valuable tool for developers using TypeScript and Webpack, enabling faster build times by running TypeScript type checking and linting in a separate process. Comparing version 6.3.0 with the previous stable version, 6.2.13, reveals a few key differences that developers should note. Both versions share the same core dependencies, including glob, chalk, memfs, semver, and tapable, ensuring a consistent base functionality. The development dependencies also largely overlap, indicating a similar testing and linting environment. The most noticeable differences exist in the dist section. Version 6.3.0 has a slightly larger unpacked size (272299 bytes) compared to version 6.2.13 (269875 bytes), suggesting minor additions or changes in the bundled code. More importantly, the releaseDate indicates that version 6.3.0 was released about a week later than 6.2.13. While this is not a major version update, the change in unpacked size and release date hints at bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor feature enhancements. Developers considering updating should review the changelog (available in the project's repository) for specific details on these changes, and especially concerning bugfixes, before upgrading ensuring the newer version addresses any issues they might be encountering or offers improvements relevant to their workflow. Both versions maintain the same MIT license and author, ensuring continued support and community involvement.
