Version 4.4.1 Details

HtmlWebpackPlugin simplifies HTML file creation for webpack bundles. Comparing versions 4.4.1 and 4.4.0, developers will find subtle but potentially important differences. Both versions share identical dependencies, including lodash, tapable, loader-utils, and html-minifier-terser, indicating feature parity in core functionality like HTML minification and template handling. The development dependencies are also the same, meaning the tooling and testing environments haven't changed between releases.

The crucial distinction lies in the release date and potentially in bug fixes or very minor internal adjustments not reflected in dependency changes. HtmlWebpackPlugin 4.4.1 was released shortly after 4.4.0, suggesting a quick patch or refinement. Developers upgrading should check the changelog (usually available on the project's GitHub repository) for specific fixes or small changes.

For developers using HtmlWebpackPlugin, both versions streamline the process of including webpack-generated assets (JavaScript, CSS) into HTML files. The peer dependency on webpack (>=4.0.0 < 6.0.0) remains consistent, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of webpack versions. If you encountered any minor problem or bug on the 4.4.0 version, upgrading to 4.4.1 would worth the try given the very short time between releases, it could be a patch with a fix. However, it is worth reading carefully the changelog before upgrading.
