@storybook/react version 9.0.8 is a minor release of the Storybook React renderer, building upon the previous stable version 9.0.6. Both versions share the same core description as providing the React renderer for Storybook, enabling developers to build and showcase React components in an isolated environment. The core dependencies for both versions remain largely consistent, with @storybook/global and @storybook/react-dom-shim ensuring global Storybook context and React DOM compatibility respectively. Development dependencies are also virtually identical, encompassing vital tools for code analysis, transformation, and type checking, ensuring code quality and developer experience.
One key difference lies in the peer dependencies. Both versions declare identical ranges for compatible React, React DOM, and TypeScript versions, though version 9.0.8 requires Storybook version 9.0.8 (typo fixed) while version 9.0.6 requires version 9.0.6. This hints at potentially crucial bug fixes, feature enhancements, or compatibility adjustments within the Storybook ecosystem necessitating the updated peer dependency.
While the dist object reveals both packages have the same fileCount (51) and unpackedSize (1656872), the most significant differentiating factor is the releaseDate. Version 9.0.8 was released on "2025-06-10T14:53:24.108Z," whereas version 9.0.6 arrived on "2025-06-07T05:59:12.364Z." The three-day gap suggests bug fixes, performance improvements, or feature tweaks implemented between the two releases. Developers should prioritize upgrading to 9.0.8 to benefit from these improvements, ensuring they are using the latest and most stable version of the React renderer for Storybook.
