@angular/compiler version 6.0.4 is a patch release within the Angular 6 framework, building upon the foundation laid by version 6.0.3. Both versions share the same core description as the Angular compiler library, essential for transforming Angular templates and code into efficient JavaScript usable by browsers. They also depend on the same version of tslib, specifically "^1.9.0", indicating a shared TypeScript helper library dependency. Both are released under the MIT license. Notably, both versions are distributed from the same GitHub repository.
The key difference lies in the updated build included in version 6.0.4 which was released later: June 6, 2018, compared to version 6.0.3's release date of May 22, 2018. While the file count in the distributed packages of both versions remains consistent at 536 files, the unpacked size has slightly decreased in the newer version, from 22699529 bytes in 6.0.3 to 22693429 bytes in 6.0.4, suggesting optimizations or minor code adjustments. Developers should consider upgrading to 6.0.4 to benefit from any potential bug fixes, performance enhancements, and subtle refinements contributing to an improved Angular development experience. As a patch version, developers can expect a relatively seamless update without major breaking changes.
