@storybook/addon-links enhances Storybook by enabling developers to seamlessly link stories, fostering interactive demos and prototypes of UI components. Versions 6.1.14 and 6.1.15 share a common purpose and a largely identical dependency structure, leveraging tools like qs for query string parsing, core-js for JavaScript standard library features, and ts-dedent for cleaner template literals. Both rely on Storybook's core packages (addons, router, core-events, client-logger, CSF) and peer dependencies on React and React DOM for broad compatibility.
The key difference between the two versions lies in the updated dependencies on other Storybook packages. Version 6.1.15 updates its internal dependencies to versions 6.1.15 (@storybook/addons, @storybook/router, @storybook/core-events, @storybook/client-logger etc) to keep everything in sync. This is important for developers because mismatched versions of Storybook packages can lead to unexpected behavior and compatibility issues. This synchronisation of internal dependencies ensures a consistent and predictable development experience within the Storybook ecosystem. Therefore, users should update to the newer version (6.1.15) to leverage the synchronised internal packages and reduce the risk of incompatibilities, ensuring the smooth functioning of story linking features within their Storybook setup.
