@storybook/addons package, versions 6.5.9 and 6.5.8, offers a centralized store for Storybook addons, essential for extending Storybook's functionality. Both versions maintain identical peer dependencies, requiring React and ReactDOM versions 16.8.0 or higher, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of React projects. They also share the same core dependencies like global, core-js, @types/webpack-env, and regenerator-runtime, as well as Storybook's internal packages such as @storybook/api, @storybook/csf, @storybook/router, @storybook/theming, @storybook/channels, @storybook/core-events, and @storybook/client-logger. This consistent dependency structure provides a stable and predictable environment for addon development and usage. The key difference lies in the version updates of Storybook's internal packages. Version 6.5.9 updates these internal dependencies to their respective 6.5.9 versions, ensuring developers benefit from the latest bug fixes, performance improvements, and features within the Storybook ecosystem. While the fileCount and unpackedSize are identical, the updated release date of 2022-06-13 for 6.5.9, compared to 2022-06-08 for 6.5.8, highlights the more recent improvements. For developers, upgrading to 6.5.9 is recommended to leverage these enhancements and maintain compatibility with the latest Storybook features. Addons built with either version benefit from Storybook's robust architecture and tooling.
