Version 2.0.1 Details

Angular developers considering @angular/platform-browser-dynamic for their web applications should be aware of the subtle yet important differences between versions 2.0.0 and 2.0.1. Both versions serve the same core purpose: enabling the use of Angular within a web browser environment leveraging Just-in-Time (JIT) compilation. This library is essential for bootstrapping Angular applications directly in the browser, offering a highly dynamic development experience.

The key distinction lies in the peer dependencies. Version 2.0.0 specifies peer dependencies using the ^ (caret) symbol, indicating compatibility with versions *greater than or equal to* 2.0.0 within the major version. In contrast, version 2.0.1 locks down the peer dependencies to *exactly* version 2.0.1. This means that version 2.0.1 strictly requires @angular/core, @angular/common, @angular/compiler, and @angular/platform-browser to *also* be at version 2.0.1.

For developers, this difference is significant. Version 2.0.0 provides more flexibility in dependency management, potentially allowing the use of compatible patch or minor releases of the peer dependencies. However, version 2.0.1 enforces stricter version control, ensuring greater consistency and potentially avoiding unexpected compatibility issues that might arise from using slightly different versions of the core Angular modules. The choice depends on the developer's preference for flexibility versus strictness in their project's dependency management strategy. Finally, version 2.0.1 was released approximately a week after version 2.0.0.
