@storybook/addon-links facilitates seamless navigation between stories within your Storybook, empowering developers to create interactive demos and prototypes using UI components. Version 9.0.12 builds upon the solid foundation of 9.0.11, primarily by ensuring compatibility and stability within the Storybook ecosystem.
A key difference lies in the peer dependency requirement for Storybook itself. Version 9.0.12 mandates "storybook": "^9.0.12", aligning it with the specific Storybook release. In contrast, version 9.0.11 required "storybook": "^9.0.11". This seemingly small change is crucial for ensuring the addon functions correctly and without conflicts within the targeted Storybook environment. Developers upgrading to Storybook 9.0.12 should also upgrade to @storybook/addon-links 9.0.12 to maintain optimal compatibility.
Both versions maintain the same core functionality, allowing developers to link stories using the LinkTo component or the linkTo action, enabling the construction of complex workflows and user journeys directly within the Storybook environment. The dependency on @storybook/global ensures access to shared utilities and configurations for Storybook. Both version have the same dependencies and same unpacked size, pointing to a maintenance release rather than introducing new functionalities. This predictable behavior ensures that existing links will continue to operate as expected after the upgrade. The release date show that version 9.0.12 followed shortly after 9.0.11, suggesting a quick bug fix or compatibility update.
