Version 5.5.2 Details

HtmlWebpackPlugin simplifies the process of creating HTML files that serve webpack bundles, and comparing versions 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 reveals subtle, yet important, changes for developers to consider. Both versions share core dependencies like lodash, tapable, pretty-error, and html-minifier-terser, ensuring continued compatibility with existing projects. Development dependencies, essential for contributing and extending the plugin's capabilities, remain largely consistent, featuring tools like pug, jest, webpack, typescript, and various loaders.

The most notable difference lies in the webpack dependency within the devDependencies. Version 5.5.2 utilizes webpack "^5.86.0," while version 5.5.1 employs webpack "^5.79.0". This means that version 5.5.2 incorporates any bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features introduced in webpack versions 5.80.0 through 5.86.0. For developers targeting the latest webpack features or those experiencing issues with older webpack builds, upgrading to HtmlWebpackPlugin 5.5.2 is advisable. The peer dependency on webpack "^5.20.0" remains constant, indicating a stable baseline for compatibility, but the newer dev dependency will ensure using latest features during plugin's development.

Both versions maintain the same license, repository details, author information, and funding links, ensuring continuity in the project's management and support. The unpacked size of the packages are also almost the same, hinting at the small upgrade this release represents. Date release differs. The choice between versions depends on the developer's webpack environment and desire to leverage the latest webpack enhancements.
