A full version history of the jshint-stylish package with size, number of distributed files and dependency evolution.
jshint-stylish is a Node.js package that provides a stylish and human-readable reporter for JSHint, a static code analysis tool for JavaScript. Developed by Sindre Sorhus, it enhances the JSHint output, making it easier to identify and fix code quality issues.
The package has evolved through numerous versions since its initial release in October 2013. The early versions (0.1.x) quickly iterated, establishing the core functionality with dependencies like chalk for color output and text-table for organized display. Version 0.1.5 marked a shift, updating chalk and broadening the devDependencies, indicating enhanced testing and development practices.
Versions 0.2.0 and 0.3.0 sustained these dependencies. A significant update arrived with version 0.4.0, introducing log-symbols for visual cues in the report. The 1.x.x series included string-length for accurate text formatting. Version 1.0.1 updated its dependency on chalk
The 2.x.x versions added plur for pluralization in messages, further improving the user experience. Version 2.2.0 introduced beeper, potentially to signal errors audibly, and incorporated xo as a dev dependency, representing a move towards standardized code style enforcement. The latest version, 2.2.1, represents a refinement of the features introduced in 2.2.0. This evolution reflects a commitment to improving code quality and developer experience.
