Angular Compiler version 12.0.2 is a minor release following the 12.0.1 version of the Angular compiler library. Both versions share the same core dependencies, relying on tslib version ^2.1.0 for TypeScript helper functions. They are both distributed under the MIT license and are part of the Angular project, hosted on GitHub. Developers familiar with Angular will find the transition between these versions seamless. The biggest change resides in a single unit of unpacked size, increasing from 18782768 to 18782769. A very small file size increase likely means a small bugfix or very minor feature has been pushed. With fileCount staying the same, it's likely a minimal change.
The key difference lies in the release dates: version 12.0.1 was released on May 19, 2021, while version 12.0.2 was released a week later, on May 26, 2021. This suggests that version 12.0.2 likely incorporates bug fixes or minor improvements identified after the initial 12.0.1 release. Therefore, developers are encouraged to upgrade to version 12.0.2 to benefit from the latest refinements and ensure optimal stability within their Angular applications. For Angular developers, this upgrade will be seamless and is recommended for projects relying on the Angular compiler. This release continues to empower developers to build robust and scalable web applications.
