The @angular/common package, a fundamental part of the Angular framework, provides essential directives and services for building robust web applications. Comparing versions 13.3.8 and 13.3.7 reveals subtle but important distinctions relevant to developers. While both share the same description, dependencies on tslib, license (MIT), author ("angular"), repository details, file count (2961), and unpacked size (11384710), a key change lies in their peer dependency on @angular/core. Version 13.3.8 requires @angular/core specifically at version 13.3.8, while the previous version, 13.3.7, depends on @angular/core at version 13.3.7.
This indicates that upgrading to @angular/common@13.3.8 necessitates a corresponding upgrade to @angular/core@13.3.8 to ensure compatibility and prevent potential runtime errors. Crucially, their release dates differ. Version 13.3.8 was released on May 12, 2022, subsequent to version 13.3.7 released on May 11, 2022. The peer dependency update in @angular/common@13.3.8 likely addresses bug fixes, performance improvements, or feature enhancements introduced in @angular/core@13.3.8. Developers should always consult the official Angular changelog and release notes for a comprehensive understanding of the specific changes included in each release. Staying updated with the latest compatible versions ensures access to the most recent features, bug fixes, and security patches, leading to more stable and performant Angular applications. Therefore, before upgrading packages, it's a good development practice to check peer dependecies.
