Angular Router version 16.0.1 is a minor patch release following the 16.0.0 version, both part of the Angular framework's routing library. Both versions maintain the same core purpose: providing robust navigation capabilities for Angular applications. They share identical dependency structures, relying on tslib and peer dependencies like rxjs, @angular/core, @angular/common, and @angular/platform-browser. The license remains MIT, and the source code is hosted in the Angular repository on GitHub.
The key difference lies in the peer dependencies versioning, where version 16.0.1 is compatible with @angular/core, @angular/common, and @angular/platform-browser of the same 16.0.1 version, while the v16.0.0 is compatible with the v16.0.0 of those packages. This suggests bug fixes and minor improvements rather than substantial feature additions. Developers might also notice a slight size difference, with 16.0.1 having a slightly smaller unpacked size (2266671 bytes vs. 2267112 bytes for 16.0.0), potentially reflecting optimized code or removed redundant assets. Furthermore, version 16.0.1 was released on May 10, 2023, subsequent to the May 3, 2023 release date of version 16.0.0. For developers already using Angular 16, upgrading to 16.0.1 is recommended to benefit from the latest fixes. New projects should directly use 16.0.1 for optimal stability. While both are stable, minor releases often address critical issues identified after the initial major version release.
