The @angular/platform-browser-dynamic package facilitates using Angular within a web browser environment, enabling Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation. Comparing version 4.3.0 with the previous stable version, 4.2.6, reveals key considerations for developers. Both versions share the same core functionality, providing the necessary tools for dynamic Angular application execution in the browser. They both depend on tslib version ^1.7.1.
The crucial difference lies primarily in the peer dependencies. Version 4.3.0 requires specific peer versions of other Angular core packages: @angular/core, @angular/common, @angular/compiler, and @angular/platform-browser, all at version 4.3.0. Similarly, version 4.2.6 requires the 4.2.6 versions of the same peer dependencies.
This strict versioning of peer dependencies is important for maintaining compatibility and preventing runtime errors. When upgrading from 4.2.6 to 4.3.0, developers *must* also update all Angular core packages to version 4.3.0 to ensure the application functions correctly. Failing to do so can lead to unexpected behavior or application crashes as different Angular modules may have incompatible APIs or internal structures.
Furthermore, the release dates indicate that version 4.3.0 was released approximately one week after 4.2.6. Developers should consult the official Angular changelog and release notes accompanying version 4.3.0 to understand the specific bug fixes or minor features introduced, allowing them to make informed decisions about upgrading their Angular projects. The tarball URLs also differ reflecting the different builds that the registry offers via NPM.
