Zod is a TypeScript-first schema declaration and validation library, renowned for its static type inference capabilities. Comparing versions 1.11.16 and 1.11.15, the most evident difference lies in their release dates. Version 1.11.16 was published on April 25, 2021, at 21:36:22 UTC, while version 1.11.15 came out earlier that same day at 03:46:28 UTC. In terms of file structure both versions packages contain 126 files. A subtle change is the size of the unpacked package. Version 1.11.16 became slightly bigger. Now the unpacked size is 314351 bytes whereas version 1.11.15 unpacked size is 314249 bytes.
Both versions share identical dependencies and development dependencies, including testing frameworks like Jest and TS-Jest, linting tools like TSLint, and utilities like Prettier for code formatting. Core information concerning licensing (MIT), repository location (GitHub), and author details are also mirrored. This suggests the core functionality and development process remain consistent between these adjacent versions.
For developers considering Zod, this indicates stability in the library's ecosystem. The minor version bump from 1.11.15 to 1.11.16 implies bug fixes or minor enhancements rather than breaking changes, making upgrading relatively safe. The library's focus on TypeScript and static typing ensures robust validation and type safety, reducing runtime errors. Developers benefit from a well-defined schema, code completion and compile-time checks. Zod's consistent development dependencies on testing, linting, and formatting tools further solidify its commitment to high-quality code and developer experience.
