The html-webpack-plugin simplifies the creation of HTML files for serving webpack bundles, a common need for modern web development workflows. Comparing version 1.0.0 with the older stable version 0.4.0, we see both share core functionality, dependencies on "blueimp-tmpl" and identical development dependencies including "jshint," "rimraf," "webpack," and "jasmine-node," suggesting a consistent development and testing environment. They are both MIT licensed and maintained by Charles Blaxland.
The key difference lies in the version number and release date. Moving from 0.4.0 to 1.0.0 signifies a major release, potentially including new features, API changes, or significant bug fixes. Developers should investigate release notes or migration guides associated with version 1.0.0 to understand those changes and whether they need to adapt their configurations. The jump to 1.0.0 suggests a maturation of the plugin and a potentially more stable and feature-rich experience. Finally, the latter version was published on 2014-08-13, about 12 hours after the stable version. Therefore, the bump in version might fix some minor issues of it's predecessor. Upgrade to the newer version for the most up-to-date functionality and potential performance improvements within your webpack-based projects, ensuring compatibility by understanding the potential breaking changes between versions.
