Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Toad-cache 3.4.0 represents a minor update to the popular in-memory caching library, offering improvements and refinements suitable for both client-side and server-side JavaScript environments. Compared to version 3.3.1, the core functionality of LRU and FIFO caching remains consistent, ensuring a smooth transition for existing users.

A primary difference lies in the updated development dependencies. Most notably, vitest, the blazing-fast unit test framework, has been upgraded from version 0.34.6 to version 1.0.0. This jump to a major version indicates potentially significant changes under the hood, likely related to performance, stability, and possibly new testing features. While this change is mostly relevant for contributors and maintainers of the library itself during development, it can positively impact end-users because they are ensured that the library core functionality will continue to execute as expected. The library's unpacked size has marginally increased from 44298 bytes to 44609 reflecting minor code updates or dependency adjustments. Other devDependencies like @vitest/coverage-v8, @rollup/plugin-terser, auto-changelog, del-cli, eslint, eslint-config-prettier, eslint-plugin-import, eslint-plugin-prettier, precise, rollup, tsd, and typescript versions remain identical, suggesting a focused effort on testing infrastructure enhancements rather than broad changes across the build and linting processes.

For developers utilizing toad-cache, this update emphasizes continued maintenance and a commitment to modern testing practices demonstrating the overall reliability and stability of the cache as a component in their applications.
