Version 6.1.9 Details

Angular's @angular/common package provides essential directives and services for building Angular applications. Comparing versions 6.1.9 and 6.1.8 reveals subtle but important updates. Both versions depend on tslib (version ^1.9.0) and have peer dependencies on rxjs (^6.0.0) and @angular/core, aligning with their respective versions (6.1.9 and 6.1.8). The core functionality and API surface remain largely consistent, meaning developers can typically upgrade without significant code changes.

While both versions boast a substantial file count (2370), the unpacked size differs slightly: 6.1.9 is marginally smaller at 12639850 bytes compared to 6.1.8's 12640122 bytes. This suggests potential optimizations in the newer release. The key difference lies in the release date. Version 6.1.9 became available on September 26, 2018, approximately a week after the September 19th release of version 6.1.8. This indicates that version 6.1.9 likely addresses bug fixes or minor improvements identified in the preceding week. Developers should consider upgrading to 6.1.9 to benefit from these potential stability enhancements, ensuring a smoother development experience and a more robust final application. Keeping dependencies updated is always the best approach. These updates typically involve solving problems from the previous versions.
