Version 16.0.0 Details

Angular Compiler version 16.0.0 represents a significant update from the previous stable version, 15.2.10, showcasing several key changes that developers should be aware of. While both versions maintain the core function of Angular's compiler, essential for transforming Angular templates and code into efficient, browser-executable JavaScript, there are notable differences in size, dependencies, and release timeline.

Version 16.0.0 was released in May 2023, marking a shift in the Angular development cycle. With a fileCount of 141 and an unpackedSize of approximately 7MB, it signifies a leaner package compared to version 15.2.10 which has 116 files and has approximately 9MB unpacked size. The reduction in size can potentially lead to faster download and installation times, improving the developer experience, and potentially optimized performance in some scenarios. Both version has the same tslib dependencies.

The peer dependencies highlight a crucial distinction. Version 16.0.0 is tightly coupled with @angular/core version 16.0.0, while version 15.2.10 depends on @angular/core 15.2.10. This underscores the importance of aligning the versions between @angular/compiler and @angular/core to avoid compatibility issues and ensure smooth application functionality. Developers upgrading their Angular projects should carefully consider the peer dependencies and update @angular/core accordingly. The newer version released several months earlier than the older version shows that the new major releases are not strictly related with the semantic versioning and the date of publishing may differ a lot.
