Version 5.5.3 Details

HtmlWebpackPlugin version 5.5.3 represents a subtle yet potentially impactful update over version 5.5.2 for developers leveraging Webpack to streamline HTML creation within their projects. Both versions share the core functionality of simplifying the generation of HTML files that seamlessly integrate with Webpack bundles, boasting identical dependencies for core operations like templating via Lodash, error handling using PrettyError, HTML minification through html-minifier-terser, and tooling with Tapable.

The primary distinction lies within the "devDependencies" especially concerning @types/node. While both versions depend on several packages for testing and development, version 5.5.3 upgrades @types/node from version 11.13.9 to ^20.2.5. This update suggests improvements or fixes related to Node.js type definitions.

Furthermore, the unpacked size of the package has slightly increased from 116428 to 118968, reflecting a potential increase in the package size caused by the new @types/node version. The release date also distinguishes the two versions, with 5.5.3 being released on 2023-06-10 and 5.5.2 being released on 2023-06-09. Developers should consider upgrading to 5.5.3, this ensures compatibility or takes advantage of the resolved issues related to newer Node.js versions. For most users, 5.5.3 is a recommended upgrade with the added benefit of incremental improvements.
