Angular developers considering upgrades to their web applications should be aware of the subtle but potentially impactful differences between @angular/platform-browser versions 2.3.0 and 2.3.1. While both versions provide the necessary tools to run Angular applications within a web browser, the newer 2.3.1 release, published on December 15, 2016, introduces refinements over the 2.3.0 version, released just a week prior on December 7, 2016.
A key aspect to consider is the peer dependencies. Version 2.3.0 requires @angular/core and @angular/common at version 2.3.0, whereas version 2.3.1 updates these peer dependencies to their respective 2.3.1 counterparts. While the release notes should be consulted for a comprehensive list of changes, developers should anticipate minor bug fixes and performance improvements within the platform browser module. The MIT license remains consistent across both versions, ensuring freedom in utilizing the library within diverse project contexts.
If you're already using Angular 2.3.0, upgrading to 2.3.1 is recommended to benefit from the latest enhancements and fixes. Be sure to update your @angular/core and @angular/common dependencies accordingly to maintain compatibility. The tarball URLs provided offer direct access to the package files on the npm registry for easy installation. As always, ensure thorough testing after applying any updates to your Angular application.
