The @angular/platform-browser-dynamic package is a crucial component of the Angular framework, providing the necessary tools to run Angular applications directly within a web browser utilizing Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation. Comparing versions 12.2.0 and 12.1.5 reveals subtle yet important distinctions for developers.
Both versions share a common foundation, relying on tslib for TypeScript helper functions and maintaining identical file counts and unpacked sizes in their distributions, suggesting largely similar codebases. Crucially, both are licensed under the MIT license, ensuring broad usage rights, and are maintained by the Angular team. Both packages' dependencies also confirm that the packages supports: core, compiler, common and platform browser.
The most significant difference lies in the peer dependencies. Version 12.2.0 mandates @angular/core, @angular/common, @angular/compiler, and @angular/platform-browser all at version 12.2.0. Similarly, version 12.1.5 requires its peer dependencies to be at version 12.1.5. This highlights the importance of maintaining consistent Angular package versions within a project. Upgrading @angular/platform-browser-dynamic necessitates upgrading its peer dependencies to avoid potential compatibility issues. The release dates show a small gap, indicating that version 12.2.0 includes bug fixes and improvements developed in the time elapsed. Developers should always consult the official Angular changelog for detailed information on specific fixes and feature additions within each release. By always checking this Angular package developers can fully leverage the latest enhancements and ensure application stability.
