@angular/router version 7.2.16 represents a minor update over version 7.2.15, primarily focusing on bug fixes and improvements rather than introducing new features. Both versions share the same core dependencies, including tslib for TypeScript helper functions, and expect peer dependencies like rxjs and specific versions of @angular/core, @angular/common, and @angular/platform-browser to be installed in the consuming application. Notably, the file count and unpacked size of both versions are identical, suggesting that the code base hasn't changed significantly in volume.
The key difference lies in the peer dependency versions. Version 7.2.16 requires exactly @angular/core, @angular/common, and @angular/platform-browser 7.2.16. In contrast, version 7.2.15 requires the 7.2.15 version of those same packages, highlighting the importance of maintaining compatible Angular core dependencies. Developers upgrading to Angular 7.2.16's router component will thus need to ensure that their core Angular libraries are also updated to version 7.2.16 to avoid potential compatibility issues. The newer version was released on January 8, 2020, a considerable time after the release of version 7.2.15 in May 2019, meaning it likely includes accumulated bug fixes and performance enhancements. Developers should upgrade to benefit from these improvements and maintain a more stable routing experience in their Angular applications.
