Version 2.3.0 Details

Lodash.flatten, a standalone module providing the _.flatten function from the popular Lodash library, offers a convenient way to flatten nested arrays in JavaScript environments. Version 2.3.0 builds upon the previous stable version, 2.2.1, with a few key updates. Both versions share the same core functionality: providing the Lo-Dash's _.flatten method as a Node.js module. This ensures that developers can use this specific utility without importing the entire Lodash library, resulting in smaller bundle sizes and improved performance for projects where only array flattening is required.

A primary difference lies, naturally, in the updated dependencies. Version 2.3.0 relies on lodash._baseflatten and lodash.map at version ~2.3.0, while the older version depends on ~2.2.1. This suggests that Lodash itself received updates to these internal functions that are reflected in the newer lodash.flatten package.

Developers should consider upgrading to version 2.3.0 to benefit from any potential bug fixes, performance enhancements, or improved compatibility offered by the updated underlying Lodash dependencies. The MIT license ensures flexibility in usage, and the package's history, mirrored from lodash-cli's git repository, gives confidence in its provenance. The module, crafted by John-David Dalton, a key contributor to Lodash, adds to the credibility. While the core function remains the same, staying current ensures access to the most refined and reliable implementation of this essential array utility. The short time between releases also suggests it was a bug fix on previous version and not a major release.
