Marked version 4.0.10 brings subtle but important updates to this popular markdown parsing library. Comparing it to the previous stable version, 4.0.9, reveals key improvements primarily in the development dependencies, showcasing a focus on code quality, security, and build process enhancements. Developers upgrading to 4.0.10 will appreciate the updated tooling, which includes newer versions of rollup (2.63.0 vs 2.62.0), highlight.js (11.4.0 vs 11.3.1), and @babel/preset-env (7.16.7 vs 7.16.5). These upgrades often incorporate bug fixes, performance improvements, and support for the latest JavaScript features, ensuring a smoother development experience.
The updated highlight.js is particularly noteworthy, as it likely brings enhanced language support and improved code highlighting accuracy in rendered markdown. While the core functionality of Marked may remain largely the same between these versions, the improvements in the underlying development ecosystem contribute to a more robust and maintainable library. Furthermore, while seemingly minor, these upgrades can indirectly improve security by incorporating the latest patches in underlying libraries. The difference in unpackedSize (401835 vs 401633) is a minor indication that some changes regarding to the codebase were present. Developers already using Marked should upgrade to version 4.0.10 to benefit from these improvements and ensure they're working with the most up-to-date and secure version of the library.
