Styled-components versions 5.3.0 and 5.2.3 offer developers a robust solution for styling React applications with the power of CSS-in-JS. Both versions share the same core dependencies like @emotion/stylis for CSS parsing, shallowequal for performance optimization, and babel-plugin-styled-components for enhanced developer experience. They also come with a development environment equipped with tools like Rollup for bundling, Babel for transpilation, ESLint for linting, and Jest for testing. The peer dependencies, crucial for React integration, remain consistent, requiring React, react-dom, and react-is versions 16.8.0 or higher.
A notable difference lies in the updated react-native version within the devDependencies of 5.3.0, bumping it to ^0.63.4 from ^0.59.8 in 5.2.3. This suggests improved compatibility and potential feature enhancements for developers targeting React Native platforms. Furthermore, the unpackedSize has slightly increased to 1149254 bytes in 5.3.0 from 1147620, indicating minor code additions or modifications. The newer version was released on 2021-05-05, about a month after version 5.2.3 which was released on 2021-03-31. This regular cadence of updates reinforces the project's active maintenance and commitment to providing developers with the latest features and improvements. For developers, upgrading to 5.3.0 is recommended, especially if targeting newer React Native versions, to leverage potential enhancements and fixes.
