Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

@storybook/addon-links version 5.2.1 is a patch release addressing improvements over the previous stable version, 5.2.0. This addon provides a simple way to create links between stories within your Storybook, enhancing navigation and discoverability for users exploring your component library. Both versions share the same core functionality and dependencies, including qs for query string parsing, global, core-js for ensuring JavaScript compatibility, prop-types for component validation, and common-tags for template literal manipulation. Crucially, they also rely on core Storybook modules such as @storybook/addons, @storybook/router, and @storybook/core-events to integrate seamlessly with the Storybook environment.

The key difference lies in the versions of these core Storybook dependencies. Version 5.2.1 updates these dependencies to their corresponding 5.2.1 versions, aligning the addon with the latest improvements and bug fixes within the Storybook ecosystem. If you are using Storybook version 5.2.1 it´s recommended to use at least the addon version with the same number. While the file count and unpacked size remain the same, indicating no significant structural changes, this upgrade ensures compatibility and benefits from any refinements made to the underlying Storybook platform. Developers leveraging @storybook/addon-links for inter-story navigation should prefer 5.2.1 to guarantee the most stable and up-to-date experience, especially within a larger Storybook 5.2.1 environment because the release date is newer.
