Rollup 4.44.0 delivers incremental improvements over version 4.43.0, primarily focusing on dependency updates that can subtly impact performance and compatibility. A key change is the updated dependency @types/estree (1.0.8 vs 1.0.7), which provides TypeScript definitions for the ESTree AST format, potentially affecting TypeScript users working with Rollup plugins or custom AST transformations.
In the devDependencies, numerous packages received version bumps. Notably, mocha jumps from 11.5.0 to 11.6.0, typescript-eslint is updated from 8.33.1 to 8.34.0, and @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli moves from 11.4.2 to 11.4.3. While seemingly minor, these upgrades often include bug fixes, performance enhancements, and new features within their respective ecosystems that can positively impact the development experience. Also the previous version of Rollup was 4.41.1 and now is 4.43.0.
Among the optional dependencies, the @rollup/rollup-* platform-specific binaries saw a version update from "4.43.0" to "4.44.0", ensuring that the correct, optimized binaries are downloaded for users' respective operating systems and architectures. This affects build performance and platform compatibility directly. These updates collectively contribute to a more stable and optimized build process, addressing potential edge cases and improving overall developer experience when using Rollup for bundling modern JavaScript applications. The release date is also different of course.
