Vue Router saw a bump from version 0.7.5 to 0.7.6 in November 2015, representing an incremental update to this crucial routing library for Vue.js applications. While both versions share the same MIT license, repository, and authorship by Evan You, a key area of divergence lies in the development dependencies. Version 0.7.6 displays a more refined and possibly more up-to-date toolchain compared to 0.7.5. Notably, 0.7.6 introduces rollup and uglify-js suggesting improved bundling and minification processes for production builds. We also see new entries such as vue-html-loader and vue-hot-reload-api indicating better support for hot reloading and HTML templating within Vue components during development.
Developers upgrading from 0.7.5 should specifically pay attention to changes in how Vue components are handled during development. In addition, version 0.7.6 seems to have dropped the explicit dependency on route-recognizer, potentially integrating its functionality directly or using a different solution for route matching. While both versions use webpack, the newer version appears to have updated many packages such as vue-loader to version 6.0.3, babel-core to version 5.8.33, and css-loader to version 0.21.0, signalling improvements and bugfixes in the underlying compilation and loading processes. These updates can potentially lead to better performance, improved developer experience, and increased compatibility with newer Vue.js features. Considering the releaseDate, these changes reflect the evolution of the Vue.js ecosystem and the efforts to keep Vue Router aligned with best practices.
