Version 6.0.1 Details

@angular/compiler versions 6.0.1 and 6.0.0 are both iterations of Angular's core compiler library, essential for transforming Angular templates and TypeScript code into efficient JavaScript. While version 6.0.1 might be considered a minor patch release compared to the stable 6.0.0, developers should be aware of the nuances between the two. Both versions share the same core dependencies, relying on tslib version ^1.9.0 for TypeScript helper functions. They are governed by the MIT license and originate from the official Angular repository on GitHub, ensuring they meet open-source standards.

Both versions also include the same file count inside the packages (536), but the unpacked size differs slightly. Version 6.0.0 has an unpacked size of 22699898 bytes, while 6.0.1 has an unpacked size of 22699543 bytes. Such differences probably contain bug fixes.

The key difference lies in the release date and, implicitly, the potential bug fixes and minor feature enhancements incorporated in version 6.0.1. Released on May 11, 2018, version 6.0.1 came out approximately a week after 6.0.0 (released on May 3, 2018). Developers using @angular/compiler should check the official Angular changelog and release notes for detailed information on specific bug fixes, performance improvements, or newly introduced features implemented in 6.0.1. Updating to the latest patch version (6.0.1 in this case) is generally recommended to leverage these improvements and ensure a more stable and performant Angular application.
