same - I check the changelog for every major (== minor if v0) and some minor version changes in most of my projects, including at work. I've caught quite a lot of would-have-broken-something changes, and opportunities for fixes/optimizations/etc by doing so. and sometimes they mention fixing a bug we didn't know we had, so we learned about it early before it corrupted too much data.
- Maxion 4mo agoIt's nice to have that luxury, we just don't have the manpower to devote to that. Major versions sure, otherwise it's just update and run test-suite and some smoke tests.
- Groxx 4mo agoit helps a lot if you make an effort to keep your dependency tree relatively small
- TonyStr 4mo agoWe are talking about npm here... Any framework like React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, etc. is going to pull in hundreds or thousands of packages. I just checked one of the smallest web projects I have (5 dependencies, no framework) and it has 265 packages In package-lock.json. My personal website (vite + nuxt) has 1171.
