Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Angular's @angular/common package version 16.1.1 represents a minor update over the immediately preceding stable release, 16.1.0. Both versions provide core functionalities and directives essential for Angular application development such as internationalization, localization, and HTTP client module. Analyzing the package data, developers will primarily notice that version 16.1.1 maintains the same dependencies on tslib and similar peer dependencies on rxjs and @angular/core - only the version of angular core changes and the package name remains unchanged between the 2 versions. The file count in the distributed package remains constant at 3006 files, but the unpacked size sees a marginal increase. Given the nature of semantic versioning, this increment in size typically indicates bug fixes, performance optimizations, or very minor feature enhancements within the version 16.1.1, it is important to note also the difference in the release date that suggest that 16.1.1 comes a day after 16.1.0 and that it is a bug fix from a non-stable version published between then. Due to the small differences in versions, developers are encouraged to update to the latest patch release where bug fixes are available. For existing projects already using Angular 16.1.0 and its associated dependencies, upgrading to 16.1.1 should be a straightforward process.
