The @storybook/addon-links package, designed to enhance Storybook with story linking capabilities, saw a minor version update from 5.2.2 to 5.2.3 on October 7, 2019. Both versions maintain the core functionality of enabling navigation between stories within a Storybook instance, facilitating a more interconnected and user-friendly documentation experience.
Developers utilizing this addon can create interactive prototypes and comprehensive component libraries by linking related stories, streamlining the exploration of component variations and use cases. The underlying dependency structure remains largely consistent between the two versions, with shared dependencies like qs, global, core-js, prop-types, and common-tags ensuring stability and compatibility. A crucial aspect to note is the peer dependency on react, indicating that the addon is designed to seamlessly integrate with React-based Storybook setups.
The key differentiating factor lies within the internal Storybook packages. Version 5.2.3 depends on @storybook/addons, @storybook/router, and @storybook/core-events all at version 5.2.3, while version 5.2.2 relies on the same packages but at version 5.2.2. This suggests the update likely involves bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor feature enhancements within the Storybook ecosystem itself, rather than significant changes to the addon's API or core functionality. Both versions are MIT licensed, offering developers the freedom to use and modify the addon as needed. The file count and unpacked size remain identical, indicating that the code changes were minimal. For developers already using version 5.2.2, upgrading to 5.2.3 is recommended to benefit from the latest improvements and ensure compatibility with the broader Storybook environment.
