The npm package marked, a markdown parser known for its speed, has a couple of updates to note between version 16.1.2 and the newer 16.2.0. The core functionality remains the same, continuing to provide a fast and efficient solution for converting markdown to HTML. However, several development dependencies have been upgraded, potentially leading to improvements in the development workflow and under-the-hood performance.
Specifically, eslint jumps from version 9.32.0 to 9.33.0 bringing the regular fixes and updates. The more significant change is the upgrade of typescript from version 5.8.3 to 5.9.2, which includes features and bug fixes that contribute to more robust type checking and overall code quality and make it easier to create new features with less effort. @semantic-release/github also sees an increment from 11.0.3 to 11.0.4. The unpackedSize also increased slightly, suggest some new feature but overall the library is pretty much the same for developers.
These upgrades suggest a focus on keeping the development environment current that improves the overall efficiency of maintaining the package. Developers using marked should benefit from these improvements.
The are not vulnerabilities for the version 16.2.0 of the package marked
