Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

MathML Tag Names version 4.0.0 represents a significant upgrade from version 3.0.2, introducing noteworthy changes primarily in its development dependencies. Developers considering an update should be aware of these shifts. The newer version boasts updated tooling, including newer versions of TypeScript, Prettier, and remark-related packages, potentially leading to more standardized and maintainable code. Specifically, the jump to TypeScript 5, Prettier 3, and a newer remark preset indicates a commitment to modern JavaScript development practices and improved code formatting and linting.

A key difference lies in the introduction of @types/node, hast-util-from-html, hast-util-select, and hast-util-to-string as development dependencies in version 4.0.0. These packages suggest an increased focus on HTML parsing and manipulation within the project’s testing or build process, highlighting potential enhancements in handling MathML within HTML contexts. Conversely, several packages from the older version, such as tape, rimraf, unified, rehype-parse, and concat-stream, have been removed. This streamlining suggests a shift in testing methodologies and dependency management, possibly indicating a more efficient and focused development workflow.

While the core functionality of providing a list of known MathML tag names likely remains consistent, developers should carefully examine the changes in the development environment. Upgrading could require adjustments to existing build pipelines or testing strategies to align with the new set of dependencies. The increase in unpackedSize and fileCount hints at a slightly more complex package structure, potentially including additional test files or documentation. Importantly, the releaseDate of version 4.0.0 is in the future, indicating that this version is either a pre-release version or the releaseDate is wrong.
