@storybook/addon-essentials versions 6.0.16 and 6.0.15 are incremental releases focused on providing a streamlined developer experience within the Storybook ecosystem. Both versions offer a curated set of essential addons designed to enhance Storybook's capabilities, simplifying tasks like documenting components, controlling props, simulating user interactions, and managing visual aspects.
A key area of focus for both versions is in providing excellent tooling for component documentation with @storybook/addon-docs for interactive and informative stories. The @storybook/addon-controls addon enhances interactivity, making it extremely easy to adjust component properties directly within the Storybook UI. Further enhancing the storybook experience, @storybook/addon-actions provides a clean and direct route to verifying events and outputs within tests and interaction scenarios, while addons like @storybook/addon-toolbars, @storybook/addon-viewport, and @storybook/addon-backgrounds enable developers to fine-tune their stories for different contexts and devices.
The primary distinction between versions 6.0.15 and 6.0.16 lies in their internal dependency versions. Many of the internal @storybook/* dependencies are individually updated from the 6.0.15 version to the 6.0.16 version. For developers, this means a possible subtle improvement on stability, bug fixes within the core storybook libraries and enriched compatibility with the overall Storybook environment. There is also a minor release date increase from 2020-08-20T10:55:26.999Z to 2020-08-20T14:17:11.118Z. Package size and API compatibility remain consistent between the two versions.
