Version 8.1.1 Details

ts-node version 8.1.1 is a minor update over 8.1.0, offering subtle yet potentially impactful improvements for TypeScript developers using Node.js. Both versions provide seamless TypeScript execution and REPL, enhanced with source map support for easier debugging. A key difference lies in the updated diff dependency, moving from version 3.1.0 to version 4.0.1. This may introduce subtle changes in how differences are calculated and displayed, affecting developers who rely on ts-node for tasks involving code comparison or patching.

The updated @types/diff development dependency, jumping from version 3.2.1 to 4.0.2, suggests improved type definitions for diffing functionalities, potentially simplifying development workflows for those using these features in their tests. Also some of the dependencies of the type definitions have been updated.

Within the devDependencies, mocha increased from 5.0.1 to 6.1.4. And semver also received update from 5.1.0 to 6.1.0. @types/node was also updated from 10.0.3 to 12.0.2, and @types/semver was updated from 5.3.34 to 6.0.0 and @types/source-map-support` from 0.4.0 to 0.5.0.

While both versions maintain the same core functionality, developers should be mindful of potential behavioral changes introduced by the diff update especially when working with legacy code or configurations. The changes overall suggest a focus on stability and keeping type definitions current while the core functionality remains consistent. The release date also shows a difference of a month and a half of development between the two.
