Angular developers looking to leverage the @angular/common package should be aware of the subtle, yet important, differences between versions 12.0.3 and 12.0.2. Both versions serve the core purpose of providing commonly used directives and services vital for building Angular applications. The description and primary function remain consistent. Examining the metadata reveals that while both versions depend on tslib version ^2.1.0 and peer dependencies include rxjs ^6.5.3, a key difference lies in the required @angular/core version. Version 12.0.3 necessitates @angular/core version 12.0.3, while 12.0.2 naturally aligns with @angular/core 12.0.2.
The dist object also carries significance. The unpackedSize reflects a marginal size increase from 12,250,474 bytes in version 12.0.2 to 12,252,463 bytes in 12.0.3 implying that some new features or bug fixing and some modifications may have resulted in an increase in packaged content . This could be from bug fixes, minor feature additions, or internal code adjustments. The releaseDate confirms that version 12.0.3 (June 2nd, 2021) was released shortly after version 12.0.2 (May 26th, 2021), suggesting a reactive release, potentially to fix critical bugs uncovered in the previous version. While file count remains the same meaning these versions don't add or remove any file, this information can informs developers needing a stable package with the latest reliability improvements to prioritise upgrading to the later version, 12.0.3, to benefit from any potential bug fixes included.
