Angular's @angular/common package, a cornerstone for building Angular applications, saw a minor version update moving from version 14.2.2 to 14.2.3. Both versions serve as repositories for essential directives and services crucial for typical Angular development tasks. Examining the metadata, the core functionalities and dependencies remain largely consistent. Both rely on tslib version 2.3.0 or higher for TypeScript helper functions, and share peer dependencies on rxjs (versions 6.5.3 or 7.4.0 and up) for reactive programming and @angular/core.
The critical difference resides in the @angular/core peer dependency: version 14.2.3 of @angular/common requires @angular/core version 14.2.3, while the 14.2.2 version naturally expects @angular/core version 14.2.2. This indicates a tight coupling and potential API adjustments (even if subtle) between these core modules. The file count and unpacked size of the distribution archives are identical, suggesting that the code additions or modifications are minimal, likely bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor feature tweaks rather than substantial architectural changes. Developers should upgrade to @angular/common version 14.2.3 alongside @angular/core version 14.2.3 to ensure compatibility and benefit from the latest improvements. The release date differences also highlight the recency of the newer @angular/common.
