Tailwind CSS saw a minor version update from 1.4.0 to 1.4.1, primarily focusing on internal adjustments and refinements. The core functionality and utility-first approach remain consistent, ensuring a seamless experience for developers already familiar with Tailwind CSS. Both versions share the same set of dependencies, including crucial tools like PostCSS, Autoprefixer, and PurgeCSS, guaranteeing compatibility and feature parity in terms of CSS processing, browser compatibility, and optimization.
The primary difference lies in the dist object, specifically the unpackedSize. Version 1.4.1 is marginally larger at 7385132 bytes compared to 1.4.0's 7385114 bytes, indicating slight modifications to the codebase, potentially bug fixes, or updated documentation. Both versions contain the same number of files (182). The release dates reveal that version 1.4.1 was published on April 30, 2020, a day after version 1.4.0 was released on April 29, 2020.
For developers, this suggests a quick turnaround for addressing minor issues or improvements in version 1.4.0. Upgrading to 1.4.1 is recommended to benefit from any potential fixes and optimizations, although the impact on project performance or features is likely minimal given the small size difference. Developers can continue to leverage Tailwind CSS's utility classes to rapidly prototype and build custom user interfaces, knowing that both versions offer a robust and consistent foundation. Given the frequent release of new versions we recommend staying up to date with Tailwind CSS to get the latest fixes and functionalities available on this framework.

PostCSS line return parsing error
An issue was discovered in PostCSS before 8.4.31. It affects linters using PostCSS to parse external Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). There may be \r discrepancies, as demonstrated by @font-face{ font:(\r/*);} in a rule.
This vulnerability affects linters using PostCSS to parse external untrusted CSS. An attacker can prepare CSS in such a way that it will contains parts parsed by PostCSS as a CSS comment. After processing by PostCSS, it will be included in the PostCSS output in CSS nodes (rules, properties) despite being originally included in a comment.
