Less-loader version 6.1.2 represents a minor update over its immediate predecessor, version 6.1.1. While both versions share the core functionality of compiling Less stylesheets into CSS for webpack-based projects, several underlying development dependencies have been updated. Developers will find the updated dependencies, particularly within the development environment, offer potentially improved tooling and linting capabilities.
Specifically, eslint has been bumped from version 7.2.0 to 7.3.0, @babel/cli from 7.10.1 to 7.10.3, @babel/core from 7.10.2 to 7.10.3, @commitlint/cli from 8.3.5 to 9.0.1, @babel/preset-env from 7.10.2 to 7.10.3, @commitlint/config-conventional from 8.3.4 to 9.0.1, and eslint-plugin-prettier from 3.1.3 to 3.1.4. These upgrades generally involve bug fixes, performance improvements, and potentially new features exposed at the development level relating to code quality, commit linting and transpilation, which are all relevant for those contributing to the loader or when debugging issues. The core dependencies and peer dependencies like less, webpack, clone, loader-utils, and schema-utils remain consistent, suggesting no significant changes in the fundamental compilation process. Given the nature of the changes, upgrading from 6.1.1 to 6.1.2 should be relatively straightforward for most users, providing a more refined development experience without introducing breaking changes in the compilation logic.
