MSW (Mock Service Worker) is a popular library for seamless API mocking in both browser and Node.js environments, simplifying testing and development workflows. Comparing versions 2.5.0 and 2.5.1 highlights subtle but potentially impactful changes for developers. The core functionality remains consistent, centered around intercepting network requests and providing mock responses, allowing frontend development to proceed independently of backend API availability.
The dependency lists show a single difference between versions, a new version of @inquirer/confirm, upgrading from 4.0.0 to ^5.0.0. This might introduce changes related to interactive command-line prompts used during setup or configuration, potentially affecting the library's CLI experience. While the core mocking logic is unlikely to be affected, pay attention to potentially breaking changes due to the version change of @inquirer/confirm package. This update may influence how interactive prompts are rendered or handled, especially if you're using MSW's CLI tools.
Both versions share identical development dependencies, core dependencies, fileCount and unpackedSize suggesting no significant internal refactoring or feature additions between releases. Given the patch version increment, version 2.5.1 likely addresses minor bugs or compatibility issues building upon the stability of 2.5.0 which may be relevant for developers encountering edge cases. The upgrade of @inquirer/confirm also suggests improvements or fixes related to user interaction during setup or configuration. The releaseDate also shows that the newer version was released about 2 days after the previous.
