Ora version 4.0.3 introduces subtle but important updates compared to its predecessor, version 4.0.2, primarily affecting the underlying dependencies which can impact the developer experience when integrating the spinner into command-line applications. A key difference lies in the updated chalk dependency, moving from version ^2.4.2 to ^3.0.0. This upgrade brings potential improvements in terminal styling and color support, leveraging the latest features and bug fixes of the popular chalk library. Another significant change can be seen in strip-ansi, updated from ^5.2.0 to ^6.0.0. This dependency is responsible for removing ANSI escape codes, ensuring clean output in environments where styling is not supported, offering more robust and compatible text processing. Additionally, the dev dependencies xo, responsible for linting, was updated from 0.24.0 to ^0.25.3, and tsd for Typescript definition testing goes from 0.8.0 to ^0.10.0. While the core functionality of Ora as an elegant terminal spinner remains consistent, these dependency upgrades enhance the reliability and compatibility of the package, making it a more robust choice for developers aiming to provide polished and visually appealing command-line interfaces. The release date difference of approximately one and a half months also suggests bug fixes and minor improvements may have been incorporated. The small size increase, from 20765 to 21564 unpacked, hints at added functionality or refinements contributing to a slightly larger footprint, although is not significant.
