Version 1.6.1 Details

SockJS-client offers a WebSocket-like object for browsers, facilitating real-time, bidirectional communication between a client and server. Version 1.6.1 brings a subtle but important update compared to version 1.6.0. The key difference lies in the eventsource dependency, which is bumped from version 1.1.0 to version 2.0.2. This upgrade likely incorporates bug fixes, performance improvements, and potentially new features within the EventSource polyfill, which is used when native WebSockets are unavailable. While the core functionality of SockJS-client remains consistent, this dependency update can translate to more reliable and efficient communication, especially in environments where WebSocket support is limited or unreliable. Developers will appreciate the updated EventSource as it ensures a smoother fallback mechanism, minimizing disruptions in real-time applications. Both versions maintain a consistent set of development dependencies, providing a stable toolchain for building and testing applications that rely on SockJS-client. The library is licensed under MIT, encouraging broad usage and modification and receives funding through Tidelift, indicating active maintenance and community support.
