Versions Summary

npm-check-updates is a command-line tool designed to simplify the process of keeping your project's dependencies up-to-date. Since its initial release (v1.0.0) in 2013, it has undergone significant evolution.

Early versions (1.0.0-1.2.0) focused primarily on updating npm dependencies with a core set of features. Version 1.3.0 marked a turning point, introducing devDependencies and more robust dependency version handling with semver. This enhancement was expanded to address the needs of bower.json in v2.3.0 further broadening its use.

Version 2.0.0 was a major release with a more modern library and many modern dependency and devDependency like chalk, lodash, semver and more. Later versions were including a security component, snyk, the functionality and scope were improved.

The 3.x series introduced user prompts and enhanced configuration options, allowing for more interactive and customized update processes.

With version 4.0.0, a shift to modern dependencies like chalk@4 and lodash@4 signalled a further commitment to utilizing updated libraries. The incorporation of pacote in version 3.1.12 ensured reliable dependency fetching.

Versions starting from 7.0.0, the project began standardizing linting and development practices and focused on better typescript support. With ongoing enhancements in each major release, npm-check-updates has matured into a versatile and essential tool for modern JavaScript projects, streamlining dependency management and promoting code health. The latest versions (16.x and higher) continue on this path. They support yaml configurations with more features targeting specific edge-cases.

Later versions began using a wider variety of testing, linting, and automation, demonstrating maturity and robustness. This history showcases a consistent emphasis on improving functionality and enhancing project structure.
