Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

On-exit-leak-free helps Node.js developers ensure their applications don't leak memory when exiting, allowing garbage collection to do its job effectively. Version 2.0.0 refines this crucial functionality. While both versions share the same core description - executing a function on exit without memory leaks - a key difference lies in their development dependencies. Version 2.0.0 updates the "standard" dependency from version 16.0.3 to version 17.0.0, bringing in potentially newer linting and code style rules. Developers should note that while the core goal remains, this update might introduce subtle changes or stricter code formatting expectations depending on their build process. The unpacked size of version 2.0.0 is slightly smaller (7500 bytes compared to 8254 bytes in 1.0.0), and the number of files decreased from 12 to 11, suggesting internal optimizations or refactoring. The newer version was also released approximately three weeks after the earlier version. For developers, the updated standard version is the most noteworthy change, which ensures the ongoing validity of the project. Both versions maintain the same MIT license and are accessible through the same GitHub repository.
