Version 5.0.0 Details

Grunt-preprocess offers a way to conditionally include or exclude sections of your HTML and JavaScript files based on predefined environments, streamlining the build process for different deployment targets like development, staging, or production. Comparing version 5.0.0 with its predecessor, 4.2.0, reveals some key updates developers should consider. Both versions share the same core functionality and developer dependencies aimed at linting, unit testing and file operations. Both are designed around Grunt task automation.

However, a significant difference lies in the dependency preprocess. Version 5.0.0 upgrades this crucial dependency to ~3.0.2 whereas 4.2.0 uses ~2.3.1. This update in the core preprocessing engine of the plugin likely brings improvements in directive parsing, potential bug fixes, and possibly new features related to conditional processing of your source files that could open up new possibilities. Before upgrading, developers may want to check the changelog of the preprocess package to fully understand the breaking changes coming with new versions of the tool.

Both versions also share the same peer dependency on grunt, specifying compatibility with version ~0.4.0. This ensures that the plugin continues to function correctly within existing Grunt-based workflows. The update to version 5.0.0 went online on July of 2015, a month after the release date of version 4.2.0.
