Are There Cache Issues When Updating an SPFX Web Part?

Question

I have noticed that when I update the SPFx Web Part in the productive environment, it takes a long time to synchronize the new version.
It keeps changing the new version with the old one. Time is the new version, time the old.
How to solve this?
Thanks

Hi @Toriyama ,
In fact, any SharePoint Framework project has two different kinds of versions. The more project oriented version number is stored in the ‘package.json’. The web part related is stored in the ‘package-solution.json’ inside the config folder.
Both are valid versions of your project, but they are not in sync and needs to be updated individually. For SharePoint you can update the package-solution file. For the overall project you update the ‘package.json’ in the root folder.
Currently there is no tooling support available that allows you to update the version of your web part solution file. You can update the version number manually by editing the ‘package-solution.json’.
