Angular developers will find the transition between @angular/compiler versions 13.0.1 and 13.0.2 a subtle yet important update. Both versions maintain the core functionality expected of Angular's compiler library, remaining consistent in their dependencies, relying on tslib version ^2.3.0. Crucially, both releases also share the same file count of 311 within their distributions and an identical unpacked size of 13,408,818 bytes, indicating no major architectural shifts or significant additions of new features influencing size.
The primary difference lies in the release date. Version 13.0.2 was published on November 17, 2021, while version 13.0.1 came out a week earlier, on November 10, 2021. This suggests that version 13.0.2 is likely a patch release addressing bugs or minor issues discovered in the initial 13.0.1 version. Developers using Angular should consider upgrading to 13.0.2 to benefit from these fixes and potential stability improvements. While the underlying code and dependencies appear the same, the later release date signals a refined and potentially more robust version of the compiler. As best practice upgrading will ensure you are using a better version of the library.
