Prettier 2.8.6 is the latest stable release of the popular, opinionated code formatter, succeeding version 2.8.5. Both versions share the same core functionality: automatically formatting code to adhere to a consistent style, improving readability and maintainability across projects and teams. They are licensed under the MIT license and maintain the same repository. While the functionality remains the same, developers should be aware of potentially small differences between the versions.
A key highlight is the release date difference. Version 2.8.6 was published on March 21, 2023, succeeding version 2.8.5, which was released a day earlier, on March 20, 2023. This suggests that version 2.8.6 probably addresses minor bug fixes or improvements identified shortly after the previous release. The unpacked size of version 2.8.6 is marginally larger than version 2.8.5 which could indicate that a small number of code changes or assets had been added. For developers, upgrading to the latest version (2.8.6) is generally recommended to benefit from the most up-to-date bug fixes and refinements, ensuring the best possible formatting experience. Prettier helps ensure consistent code style in your project and that allows developer teams to focus on code instead of code style.
