Angular core version 16.2.12 represents a minor update to the core framework, building upon the stable foundation of version 16.2.11. Both versions share the same core dependencies, including tslib for TypeScript helper functions and specify compatible peer dependencies of rxjs and zone.js. Developers can continue using existing rxjs versions from ^6.5.3 or ^7.4.0 and zone.js version ~0.13.0. This stability ensures smooth transitions for existing Angular projects upgrading to either version. The licenses and repository details also remain consistent between the two versions, pointing to the standard MIT license and the official Angular GitHub repository.
The key differences lie in the "dist" section of the package data. While both versions have the same number of files, 326, the 16.2.12 version has a slightly higher unpacked size of 19117005 bytes compared with 19116059 bytes of 16.2.11. This suggests that the 16.2.12 release incorporates minor code enhancements, bug fixes, or potentially updated documentation that slightly increased the package size. From the release dates it could be seen that version 16.2.12 was released on November 2, 2023, a week after version 16.2.11 was released on October 25, 2023. Developers should consider the benefits it provides by inspecting changelogs, upgrade guides, and announcements from the Angular Team to understand the specific changes included in 16.2.12.
