The @storybook/addon-links package, crucial for crafting interactive storybook experiences by enabling navigation between stories, saw a minor version bump from 7.0.21 to 7.0.22. Both versions maintain the core functionality of linking stories, empowering developers to build demos and prototypes showcasing UI components seamlessly. The package depends on essential utilities like ts-dedent for template literal handling and prop-types for component validation. Internally, it relies on other @storybook packages, including @storybook/csf for Component Story Format support, @storybook/types for type definitions, and modules like @storybook/router, @storybook/core-events, @storybook/manager-api, @storybook/preview-api, and @storybook/client-logger for routing, event handling, managing the storybook UI, and logging respectively. Development dependencies such as fs-extra and typescript remain consistent across versions, indicating no changes in the build process or tooling. The peer dependencies specify compatibility with React versions 16.8.0, 17.0.0, and 18.0.0 ensuring broad compatibility across React projects.
The key change between versions 7.0.21 and 7.0.22 lies within the internal @storybook package dependencies. Specifically, @storybook/types receives an update from 7.0.21 to 7.0.22, alongside updates to @storybook/router, @storybook/core-events, @storybook/manager-api and @storybook/preview-api which reflects a synchronized update across the core Storybook ecosystem. This suggests that version 7.0.22 likely includes bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features within these core modules that directly impact the addon's behavior or integration with the Storybook environment. From a developer's perspective, upgrading to 7.0.22 is recommended to benefit from these potentially crucial improvements in underlying Storybook functionalities, ensuring a smoother and more robust storybook experience, particularly when leveraging the linking capabilities of the addon. The relatively short interval between releases - approximately 2 days suggests a quick response to a reported bug or a needed feature to ensure a smooth experience for the developers.
