The @storybook/react package has been updated from version 8.3.7 to 8.4.0. This update introduces several changes relevant to developers using Storybook with React.
A focused change is visible in the dependencies. Version 8.4.0 simplifies the dependency list by ensuring all @storybook/* dependencies are at version 8.4.0, creating a more cohesive experience. Specifically, @storybook/theming, @storybook/components, @storybook/manager-api, @storybook/preview-api, and @storybook/react-dom-shim are upgraded to align with the new version. The older 8.3.7 version listed these dependencies with the exact version number 8.3.7.
The dependency es-toolkit found on version 8.4.0 is not specified on the 8.3.7 version. A dependency change on the older version is the removal of the dependecy util-deprecate. Additionally, the newer version includes @storybook/test":"8.4.0" on the *devDependencies*.
Although both versions share the same peer dependencies for react, react-dom, storybook, typescript, and @storybook/test, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of React versions (16.8.0 to 19.0.0-beta), developers upgrading should ensure that their peer dependencies match the expected versions. The releaseDate suggests that the 8.4.0 contains newer features and bug fixes to the 8.3.7 version. Developers aiming for the latest fixes, features, and enhancements should consider upgrading to 8.4.0, while ensuring compatibility with updated peer dependencies.
