Version 2.8.3 Details

Prettier version 2.8.3 introduces subtle refinements over its predecessor, version 2.8.2, in the popular opinionated code formatter. While the core functionality remains consistent – automatically enforcing a consistent code style across your projects – careful examination of the metadata reveals key differences. Both versions maintain the same MIT license, author (James Long), and funding model, ensuring continued community support and open-source accessibility. The repository URL also remains unchanged, indicating no fundamental shifts in the project's development.

The primary discrepancy lies in the release date: version 2.8.3 was published on January 14, 2023, a week after version 2.8.2's release on January 7, 2023. This suggests that 2.8.3 is likely a patch release addressing specific bugs or minor issues identified in 2.8.2. The package contents ("fileCount":34) appear structurally identical between versions.

Notably, "unpackedSize" is very slightly different. Version 2.8.3 has an unpacked size of 11675249 bytes compared to version 2.8.2's 11675267 bytes. The size difference of 18 bytes suggests some refinement or optimization of existing functionality. The update might include critical bug fixes or very minor performance improvement, so developers using 2.8.2 are encouraged to upgrade to 2.8.3. Developers using an older version should consider upgrading to the latest stable version (2.8.3) for the most up-to-date features and stability.
