Mini-css-extract-plugin is a Webpack plugin vital for modern web development, efficiently extracting CSS into separate files. Versions 0.8.1 and 0.8.2, while seemingly close, offer subtle differences that developers should consider. Both versions share identical core dependencies, including loader-utils, schema-utils, normalize-url, and webpack-sources, ensuring consistent handling of CSS extraction and dependency management. Similarly, their development dependencies, encompassing testing frameworks like jest, linting tools like eslint, and build utilities like webpack and babel, remain the same, ensuring a consistent development environment. The peer dependency is also the same: webpack@^4.4.0.
However, a key distinction lies in their release dates and unpacked sizes. Version 0.8.2 was released on December 17, 2019, at 17:45:37.652Z, a few hours after version 0.8.1 (released on December 17, 2019, at 14:04:25.430Z), suggesting an immediate patch or update. The unpacked size difference (52408 vs 52013) indicates potential bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor feature additions in version 0.8.2, making it the preferable choice for developers seeking the most up-to-date and potentially more stable build. Always prioritize using the latest patch version for enhanced reliability in your Webpack workflow.
