Angular's @angular/common package provides essential directives and services for building Angular applications. Comparing version 14.0.0 and 13.4.0 reveals several key differences that might impact development choices. The most obvious is the versioning, with 14.0.0 representing a major version upgrade from 13.4.0. The releaseDate field makes that even more evident, with the 14.0.0 released on June 2, 2022, while 13.4.0 released almost a year later in April 6, 2023 providing a more stable ground to migrate to newer versions.
Looking at peer dependencies, version 14.0.0 requires @angular/core version 14.0.0, tightly coupling these core packages. Conversely, version 13.4.0 has @angular/core listed as 13.4.0, indicating a requirement for the 13.x version family. Although both versions specify rxjs versions ^6.5.3 or ^7.4.0, the difference in @angular/core will probably also require different versions of rxjs. Both versions share the MIT license and the same author ("angular") and repository details, including the location of the source code in the angular GitHub repository. Examining the dist section, the tarball URLs point to different package versions on the npm registry. Version 14.0.0 has a file count of 2996 with an unpacked size of 11671392 bytes, while 13.4.0 has 2975 with an unpacked size of 11943458 bytes, indicating that version 14.0.0 includes additional or restructured files, also smaller in size. Developers should consider the Angular core version they are using and select the corresponding @angular/common version to avoid compatibility issues, alongside the stability of the recent releases.
