Styled-components is a popular library for React developers providing a way to write CSS-in-JS, enhancing component styling with the power of JavaScript. Version 5.3.3 is a minor update from version 5.3.2, both maintaining the core functionality of visual primitives for component-based styling. Both versions share the same core dependencies such as shallowequal, supports-color, @emotion/stylis, and css-to-react-native, which are crucial for feature parity and ensures consistent styling across different environments, including React Native.
The development dependencies remain virtually identical too, suggesting a focus on stability and incremental improvements rather than a major overhaul. Both rely on the same versions of tools like rollup, react, babel, and eslint ensuring familiar workflows for developers building and testing components.
However, a notable difference lies in the unpackedSize within the dist object. Version 5.3.3 has an unpacked size of 2900299 while the previous stable versions has 1184366. This might indicate the inclusion of new assets, optimizations, or potentially some debugging information intended for the release. While the number of files remains constant, this increase in the amount of data added might warrant further investigation to evaluate the impact on bundle size or installation time for the developers that upgrade. These versions also share the same peer dependencies for react, react-dom and react-is. This means that the versions can be used with a common react project version using at least version 16.8.0 for these packages.
