Angular's @angular/common package provides essential directives and services for building Angular applications. Comparing versions 14.2.10 and 14.2.9, we see subtle but potentially important differences for developers managing their Angular projects. Both versions share the same core description, dependencies on tslib, and peer dependencies on compatible versions of rxjs and @angular/core. This ensures a consistent foundation for application development. They are released under the MIT license and maintained by the Angular team with the same repository.
The key difference lies in the version number itself and their release dates. Version 14.2.10 was released on November 9, 2022, following version 14.2.9, which was released on November 3, 2022. This indicates that v14.2.10 constitutes a patch release, meaning it likely includes bug fixes and minor improvements over 14.2.9, and potentially security patches. The dist information shows a slightly different unpackedSize, where version 14.2.10 has a size of 12124076, while version 14.2.9 has the size of 12123559, suggesting that the newer version incorporates some alterations under the hood. Developers should always consider upgrading to the latest patch version within their major/minor version to benefit from these improvements and ensure application stability and security. While the file count is the same, subtle code changes, and the increased unpacked size, can solve some problems or corner cases. Before upgrading, it's good to review the angular changelog.
