caniuse-lite is a smaller subset of the Can I use (caniuse-db) data, packed to reduce client-side size while keeping essential browser feature information. It provides JavaScript APIs to access browser agents data and to convert feature and region files into formats that are mostly compatible with caniuse-db for use in web-related tooling.
Project status
- Active maintenance: The upstream push timestamp is 2026-05-30, which is recent enough to indicate the repository is still being actively updated.
- Update cadence (apparent, from provided history): The only dated tagged updates shown here are from 2021-05-05 to 2021-05-10, with multiple versions created within days, suggesting periodic dataset refreshes rather than long gaps, but the full cadence is not evidenced by the excerpt.
