I like to use
npm-check-updates
in my personal projects and thought it could be useful here too. I added some npm scripts to help with managing packages.npm run deps:patch
,npm run deps:minor
, andnpm run deps:latest
will update the package.json file to the specified versions and then runningnpm i
will install those. I rannpm run deps:patch
in this PR as an example.With a lot of dev deps it can be a hassle to keep everything up to date with the latest, and falling behind on that can be an even bigger burden later when trying to update anything for a legitimate reason such as new feature or security.
