Prettier 2.0.1 is a patch release following the major update of Prettier 2.0.0, both serving as opinionated code formatters under the MIT license. Both versions, crafted by James Long, are accessible via the same GitHub repository (https://github.com/prettier/prettier.git). Developers relying on Prettier to maintain consistent code style will find the update from 2.0.0 to 2.0.1 primarily focused on bug fixes and minor improvements, ensuring greater stability and reliability.
While both releases share the same number of files (18) within their respective tarballs, a subtle difference exists in unpackedSize. Version 2.0.0 registers at 10,613,125 bytes, while 2.0.1 presents a negligibly smaller size of 10,613,114 bytes, indicating optimized resource utilization and possible tweaks to internal structures, possibly related to the bug fixes.
The release dates, just hours apart (March 21, 2020), highlight the rapid iteration aimed at quickly addressing any initial issues discovered after the major version release. For developers, upgrading to 2.0.1 is recommended to benefit from the latest refinements and a more robust formatting experience. Given the very short time between the releases developers upgrading to 2.0.0 before 2.0.1 should review the changelogs to identify any differences.
