Version 3.16.0 Details

UglifyJS version 3.16.0 introduces subtle yet noteworthy changes compared to its predecessor, version 3.15.5. Both versions serve as essential toolkits for JavaScript developers, offering parsing, mangling/compression, and beautification functionalities. They share core dependencies like acorn version ~8.2.1 for JavaScript parsing and semver version ~6.3.0 for semantic versioning, indicating a stable foundation. The license remains BSD-2-Clause, assuring developers of permissive usage terms. The repository and author information remain consistent, pointing to the same maintainership and development history.

The primary difference lies in the dist object, particularly the unpackedSize attribute. Version 3.16.0 has a slightly larger unpacked size of 1243383 bytes compared to 3.15.5's 1238767 bytes. This suggests that the latest version includes some additions or modifications adding to the overall size after extraction. Moreover, while both versions contain 20 files, the release date of 3.16.0 is "2022-06-06" whereas for the 3.15.5 version is "2022-05-10", clearly highlighting it as the newer release. Developers should consider the package size for download and deployment purposes when choosing between versions. Version 3.16 might contain bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features, potentially outweighing the marginal size increase. Review the changelog or release notes associated with version 3.16.0, if available, to understand precisely what was changed and decide if upgrading your uglify-js package is right for your current needs.
