The @angular/platform-browser-dynamic package is a crucial component of the Angular framework, providing the functionality needed to run Angular applications directly within a web browser using Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation. Comparing versions 8.2.11 and 8.2.12 reveals subtle but important distinctions for Angular developers.
Both versions share the same core description and dependencies like tslib, ensuring compatibility with TypeScript helper functions. The file count and unpacked size of the distributed package remain consistent, suggesting no major structural changes or significant additions to the codebase between releases. Critically, the peer dependencies reflect the corresponding Angular core, common, compiler, and platform-browser versions, indicating these packages must be aligned for proper functionality. Version 8.2.11 requires peer dependencies of the same version. For version 8.2.12 needs the peer dependencies to be, as well, version 8.2.12.
The key difference lies in the release date. Version 8.2.12 was released on October 23, 2019, subsequent to version 8.2.11's release on October 15, 2019. This suggests that version 8.2.12 likely includes bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor feature enhancements implemented after the earlier release. Developers should upgrade to the latest version 8.2.12 to benefit from these potential refinements and ensure they're working with the most stable and up-to-date iteration of the library within the 8.2.x release cycle. While the changes may be incremental, staying current allows developers to leverage the continuous improvements made to the Angular framework.
