Recent updates

  • v5.0.0

    Release v5.0.0 primarily enforces a newer runtime by requiring Node.js 18. The code changes also include several packaging and dependency updates that are not covered by the release notes.

    Breaking

  • v4.0.0

    v4.0.0 converts cli-cursor to an ESM-only package and updates the Node.js support policy. In the actual code, it also changes the public export shape from named exports to a default-exported object, which is not explicitly called out in the release notes.

    Breaking

  • v3.1.0

    v3.1.0 is presented as a maintenance release with dependency updates only and no user-facing changes. The diff shows a dependency upgrade (restore-cursor), CI configuration changes, and README edits to the documented API method signatures.

    Breaking

  • v3.0.0

    v3.0.0 updates the project requirements and adds TypeScript support. The main developer-impacting change is a new minimum Node.js version requirement, which may require environment updates before upgrading.
