Redux version 4.2.1 is a minor patch release over the previous stable version 4.2.0 of this predictable state container for JavaScript applications. Both versions share the same core description: a predictable state container designed to simplify application state management. Key dependencies like @babel/runtime remain consistent, indicating no fundamental changes in the core runtime environment.
Looking at the devDependencies, the vast majority of the tools and their versions are identical between the two releases. This suggests that the development environment and build process were largely unchanged. One notable difference exists in eslint-plugin-react-hooks. Version 4.2.0 relies on version 3.0.0, while version 4.2.1 uses version 2.0.0. This suggests a regression or intentional downgrade of the eslint-plugin-react-hooks package.
From a developer's perspective, the bump from 4.2.0 to 4.2.1 is subtle. Developers should specifically investigate the change in eslint-plugin-react-hooks if they heavily rely on its features or have customized its configuration. The releaseDate indicates a significant time gap between these releases, suggesting that 4.2.1 is specifically addressing some problem. The unpackedSize of the published library is almost the same, while the fileCount is identical between the two versions. For most users, upgrading to 4.2.1 should be straightforward, and given the likely bug fix that motivated its release, is likely the recommended choice.
