Version 15.4.0 Details

React Syntax Highlighter version 15.4.0 is a minor update to the syntax highlighting component for React, building upon the solid foundation of version 15.3.1. Both versions offer capabilities for rendering code snippets with syntax highlighting, leveraging either PrismJS or Highlight.js, providing flexibility for developers depending on their preferences and existing project setup. They share the same core dependencies like prismjs, lowlight, refractor, highlight.js, and @babel/runtime, ensuring feature parity in basic syntax highlighting functionality.

The key difference lies in the internal changes and potential bug fixes implemented in 15.4.0. While the dependency lists for dependencies and devDependencies appear largely identical, the dist object reveals a slightly larger file count (1772 vs 1760) and unpacked size (1842825 vs 1820801). This suggests that version 15.4.0 likely contains additional language definitions, themes, or minor code improvements that contribute to its larger size compared to 15.3.1. Developers might want to upgrade to benefit from these potential enhancements without introducing breaking changes because both versions share the same peer dependencies, requiring a React version of >= 0.14.0. Both versions are licensed under MIT license, so they are permissively licensed and open for contribution. When upgrading, developers should always consult the changelog if available to understand the specific fixes and improvements included to properly evaluate whether these changes are relevant for their projects.
