Angular developers will find incremental improvements in the jump from version 18.0.7 to 18.1.0 of the core framework. While the core dependencies on tslib, rxjs, and zone.js remain consistent, indicating no breaking changes on that front, subtle refinements have been introduced. The new version, released on July 10, 2024, just 12 minutes later than the previous version, boasts a slightly larger unpacked size (25789217 bytes vs 25644952 bytes suggesting internal code enhancements or addition of new features. While the fileCount has increased a little bit(421 from 418) this can be also an improved documentation included in package .
For developers, this suggests a potentially smoother experience, bug fixes, and performance optimizations under the hood. It's crucial to review the official Angular changelog for a comprehensive understanding of specific changes. The increased size implies either new functionality, improved existing features, or more detailed debugging information added to the package. Upgrading to 18.1.0 could lead to subtle improvements in rendering speed, stability, or developer tooling. Checking the detailed release notes available on the Angular GitHub repository will be very helpful to understand completely the changes and also to avoid potential deprecation warnings.
