Http-server versions 0.2.6 and 0.2.5 offer a straightforward, zero-configuration command-line HTTP server solution for developers. While both share the same core functionality and author, a key difference lies in their dependencies. Version 0.2.6 introduces the "eyes" dependency at version "~0.1.6," which is absent in version 0.2.5. This addition may provide enhanced debugging or inspection capabilities within the newer version, potentially offering developers more insight into the server's behavior during development. Both versions depend on "colors" (any version) and "optimist" (version 0.2.x), suggesting consistent command-line argument parsing and terminal styling features.
The update from 0.2.5 to 0.2.6 might indicate a bug fix, a minor feature addition centered around debugging, or an update addressing compatibility with newer environments. Its release date is approximately a month later. Therefore, a developer choosing between the two should consider if they need the features or enhancements brought by the "eyes" module in 0.2.6. Without detailed release notes, it's safe to assume that 0.2.6 includes improvements over 0.2.5, making it the slightly preferred choice unless compatibility issues with existing projects arise that the absence of 'eyes' fixed. The use of permissive semver ranges for common dependencies like 'colors' suggests a design intended for broad compatibility.
