The @angular/platform-browser package, essential for running Angular applications in web browsers, saw a minor version update from 11.1.0 to 11.1.1 on January 27, 2021. Both versions share the same core functionality, providing the necessary tools and abstractions for Angular to interact with the browser's Document Object Model (DOM). Key aspects like dependency on tslib (version ^2.0.0) for TypeScript helper functions, and peer dependencies on other core Angular modules - @angular/core, @angular/common, and @angular/animations - remain consistent. The licensing under MIT ensures open-source usage, and the source code resides in the packages/platform-browser directory within the main Angular repository on GitHub.
The file count and unpacked size of the distributed package are identical across both versions hinting on the same number of files and similar internal structure, but the release date shows exactly the point when the new version was published. The practical implication for developers upgrading from 11.1.0 to 11.1.1 likely involves bug fixes and very small non-breaking improvements that are important for stability, which, while potentially subtle, can contribute to a more robust and predictable application behavior. Those seeking stability and the latest fixes are recommended to upgrade to version 11.1.1 especially considering the peer dependency needs to have compatible versions.
