Angular's @angular/platform-browser package bridges the gap between the Angular framework and the web browser environment, enabling developers to render Angular applications within the browser. Comparing versions 10.0.0 and 9.1.13 reveals key updates relevant to developers. Version 10.0.0 transitions to tslib version ^2.0.0 as a dependency, whereas version 9.1.13 does not have dependencies and uses tslib version ^1.10.0 as a peer dependency. This reflects improvements and ensures compatibility with the stated TypeScript library runtime helpers. Furthermore, both version define @angular/core, @angular/common, and @angular/animations as peer dependencies. Developers upgrading should ensure strict version alignment with these core Angular modules to prevent runtime errors.
While both versions share the same MIT license and originate from the Angular GitHub repository, significant differences exist in their distribution packages. Version 10.0.0 exhibits a notable decrease in both fileCount (78 vs. 127) and unpackedSize (1481730 vs. 2238088), suggesting code optimization and a leaner bundle size. This impacts application performance, potentially leading to faster load times. Version 9.1.13 was released in December 2020, while version 10.0.0 arrived earlier in June 2020, marking a significant update window where bug fixes, performance improvements, and potentially new features have been introduced. Consequently, developers should consult the official Angular changelog for a complete feature set, bug fixes, and breaking changes for version 10.0.0.
