Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

@storybook/addon-essentials version 8.5.4 represents a minor update to the popular Storybook addon package, building upon the foundation laid by version 8.5.3. Both versions aim to enhance the Storybook development experience with a curated set of addons designed to streamline common tasks and improve component visualization. Key functionalities, such as documentation generation with @storybook/addon-docs, interactive action recording via @storybook/addon-actions, precise element measurement using @storybook/addon-measure, and structured component outlining with @storybook/addon-outline, remain consistent across both iterations. Similarly, features like @storybook/addon-controls for interactive prop editing, @storybook/addon-toolbars for UI customization, @storybook/addon-viewport for responsive design testing, @storybook/addon-highlight for code snippet highlighting, and @storybook/addon-backgrounds for visual environment control are preserved.

The core dependencies, including the ts-dedent library for template literal handling and the development dependency on TypeScript, remain unchanged. While the code size (unpackedSize: 12300) and number of files included (fileCount: 34) are equal, the release date differs: version 8.5.4 was released on **2025-02-11**, and version 8.5.3 on **2025-02-01**. This update likely includes bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor feature tweaks within the core addons, ensuring a smoother and more reliable workflow for Storybook users. Developers upgrading from 8.5.3 to 8.5.4 can anticipate a more polished experience without major breaking changes, as the API surfaces of the individual addons within the essentials package remains the same. Both are under MIT license.
