Version 2.4.2 Details

Angular developers looking to leverage the @angular/platform-browser package should note the subtle but important differences between versions 2.4.1 and 2.4.2. Primarily, version 2.4.2, released on January 6, 2017, follows version 2.4.1, which was released on December 22, 2016. Both versions serve the same core purpose: providing the necessary tools for running Angular applications within web browsers. They share identical descriptions, licenses (MIT), repository information (hosted on GitHub under the Angular organization), and authorship. The peer dependencies specify compatibility with @angular/core and @angular/common. Version 2.4.1 depends on @angular/core version 2.4.1 and @angular/common version 2.4.1 while Version 2.4.2 depends on @angular/core version 2.4.2 and @angular/common version 2.4.2.

Although the core functionality remains consistent, the key difference lies in the peer dependencies. Upgrading from 2.4.1 to 2.4.2 necessitates updating both @angular/core and @angular/common to their respective 2.4.2 versions. This is crucial because mismatched peer dependencies can lead to unexpected behavior or runtime errors. Developers should diligently update all related Angular packages simultaneously to ensure a cohesive and stable application. The update is likely to include bug fixes and minor improvements within the core and common modules, thus contributing to a more robust browser integration for Angular apps.
