Angular Animations experienced a notable version jump from 12.2.17 to 13.0.0, marking a shift in the underlying framework. Version 13.0.0 depends on tslib version ^2.3.0, a jump from version ^2.2.0 used on version 12.2.17, suggesting potential updates and dependency alignments within the TypeScript helper library. The peer dependency @angular/core also reflects this major version increment, requiring version 13.0.0, indicating a necessary upgrade of the Angular core framework to leverage the newer animations package.
Interestingly, the file count decreased from 79 to 69 in the newer version, also the unpacked size decreased from 2422195 to 2260904. This could denote optimizations in the animation code, potentially through refactoring or removal of deprecated features. Developers upgrading should investigate the changelog for any breaking changes, especially regarding animation syntax or supported features. The release date also distinguishes the versions, with 13.0.0 arriving in November 2021 and 12.2.17 being released a year later. Newer features and bug fixes will be included in 12.2.17 since it's technically a later release. While the core functionality remains described as "Angular - animations integration with web-animations" across both versions, developers should prioritize updating to the latest compatible core version and tslib to benefit from potential performance improvements and bug fixes within the animation library.
