The @angular/compiler package is a core component of the Angular framework, responsible for transforming Angular templates and metadata into executable code that browsers can understand. Comparing versions 11.0.0 and 10.2.5 reveals key differences for developers. Version 11.0.0, released in November 2020, represents a major version update, signaling significant changes and potentially new features compared to the earlier 10.2.5 version which was released later in April 2021, and probably represents a patch. While both versions share the same dependencies on tslib (version ^2.0.0) and the same MIT license, the jump to version 11 likely incorporates performance improvements, bug fixes, and potentially new compiler features that align with the overall evolution of the Angular framework.
Developers considering an upgrade should investigate the Angular change logs for version 11.0.0 to fully understand the introduced changes. The dist metadata reveals the size differences of the archived packages, with version 11.0.0 having an unpacked size of 21027432, slightly larger than version 10.2.5's 20851780. This size difference might reflect newer functionalities. Before upgrading, developers should assess any potential breaking changes introduced in version 11.0.0 and plan accordingly to ensure a smooth transition, leveraging the updated compiler capabilities to enhance their Angular applications.
