RSVP is a lightweight JavaScript library designed to streamline asynchronous code management, offering developers robust tools for organizing and handling promises. Comparing versions 3.0.9 and 3.0.12 reveals a shift in the development ecosystem used for building and testing the library itself, which may indirectly impact developers using RSVP.
Version 3.0.9 relies heavily on Grunt, a popular JavaScript task runner, along with various Grunt plugins for tasks like concatenation, minification, linting, and testing. The presence of tools like 'grunt-browserify', 'grunt-es6-module-transpiler', and 'grunt-sweet.js' shows a complex build process involving module bundling and transpilation, likely to ensure compatibility across different JavaScript environments. The inclusion of grunt-s3 suggests automated deployment capabilities.
In contrast, version 3.0.12 adopts a Broccoli-based build system. This is evident from the inclusion of Broccoli plugins like 'broccoli-closure-compiler','broccoli-compile-modules', broccoli-concat and 'broccoli-jshint'. Broccoli is known for its speed and modularity, potentially leading to faster build times and a more maintainable build process. Tools used here suggest a more modular and streamlined approach to building the library. The removal of Grunt dependencies simplifies the toolchain.
While the core functionality of RSVP likely remained consistent between these versions, the change in build systems signals an evolution in the project's development practices. Developers interested in contributing to RSVP itself will find the 3.0.12 environment potentially easier to navigate. The libraries offer robust promise managment and are a tool of choice for code organization when dealing with asynchronous code.
