A full version history of the prettier package with size, number of distributed files and dependency evolution.
Prettier, the opinionated code formatter, has undergone numerous iterations since its initial release. The early versions, starting from 0.0.1 in January 2017, focused on basic JavaScript formatting with minimal configuration. As the project evolved, newer versions introduced enhanced language feature support, including ES2017, JSX, and Flow and more tools which allowed it to become reliable.
Reaching version 1.0.0 in April 2017 marked a significant milestone, showing growing stability. Subsequent 1.x releases brought improvements and refinements to the core formatting engine, expanding its capabilities.
The 2.x series, beginning in March 2020, represented a major version upgrade with optimizations. Throughout the 2.x lifecycle, Prettier continued to evolve, refining code formatting capabilities, and broadening support for various languages and frameworks.
Version 3.0.0, launched in July 2023, introduced significant changes. The latest iterations, including the 3.x series, emphasize continued refinement, bug fixes, and adaptation to the ever-changing landscape to the market and community demands.
