Angular's @angular/common package, a cornerstone for building Angular applications, saw a minor version bump from 20.0.0 to 20.0.1. While both versions share fundamental attributes like the MIT license, the same repository, author ("angular"), and a dependency on tslib version "^2.3.0", there are subtle but potentially impactful distinctions. Critically, the peer dependency @angular/core aligns with the respective minor version, meaning @angular/common@20.0.1 requires @angular/core@20.0.1. Both versions maintain peer dependency compatibility with rxjs versions "^6.5.3 || ^7.4.0", suggesting continued support for existing RxJS setups.
The zipped package contents changed slightly, as indicated by the unpackedSize. Version 20.0.0 has an unpacked size of 8298817 bytes, whereas version 20.0.1 has a size of 8298633 bytes, potentially hinting at minor optimizations or bug fixes within the core directives and services. Crucially, although both packages have different releaseDate, version 20.0.1 was released more recently than version 20.0.0. This release date may indicate bug fixes and small improvements. This version upgrades highlights the necessity for Angular developers to carefully review migration guides and changelogs following any update in order to preserve the functionality as was intended in the first place.
