Angular developers considering updates to their projects should note the subtle but important changes between @angular/platform-browser-dynamic versions 5.0.0 and 5.0.1. Both versions provide the necessary functionality to run Angular applications in a web browser using Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation. The core functionality, description, license (MIT), and repository remain consistent, indicating that the fundamental nature of the library wasn't altered.
The key difference lies in the version numbers of the @angular/core, @angular/common, @angular/compiler and @angular/platform-browser peer dependencies. Version 5.0.1 of @angular/platform-browser-dynamic requires these peer dependencies to also be at version 5.0.1, whereas version 5.0.0 required them to be at 5.0.0. This signals a likely patch or minor update addressing bugs or compatibility issues within the Angular ecosystem. Developers upgrading to 5.0.1 of @angular/platform-browser-dynamic must also update their core Angular packages to ensure compatibility, failing to do so will likely cause errors during the build process or runtime. The release dates also highlight the recency of version 5.0.1 which was released 1 week after version 5.0.0, further suggesting a quick resolution to any initial problems found in the previous stable release. The dependencies section lists "tslib":"^1.7.1" in both versions which means it is a Typescript library.
