No-case is a utility for transforming strings into a lowercased format with spaces separating the words, ideal for creating human-readable identifiers or normalizing text. Version 4.0.0, released in September 2023, represents a significant update from version 3.0.4, which was released in December 2020. While both versions maintain the core functionality of converting strings to lowercase with space separation and are licensed under MIT, there are key differences in their development approach and included files. Most notably, version 4.0.0 has a significantly reduced unpacked size (8183 bytes compared to 25128 bytes in the older version) and a smaller file count of 5 compared to the previous 15 files, suggesting a potential refactoring and optimization effort to minimize the library's footprint.
The previous version 3.0.4, relied on dependencies like lower-case and tslib, and included a suite of development dependencies for testing, linting, and building, such as Jest, TypeScript, and TSLint. The absence of these explicit dependencies in the 4.0.0 metadata suggests they might have been bundled or handled differently. Developers upgrading should be aware of the potential removal or changes in how dependencies are managed which can lead to slight API changes, but also potentially a much cleaner and smaller overall library. Also, the library has been updated in the last 6 months, while the previous version was released almost 4 years ago.
