v5.0.0 Highlights
React 18
React 18 support is finally here! In this release, we’ve done as little as possible to upgrade to React 18. That means we’re not using streaming methods like renderToPipeableStream yet. (If you don’t know what that is, don’t worry.) We’ll be adding support for streaming in the future, and may have an experimental release for you to try soon.
TypeScript v5
TypeScript v5 was released in March and we were able to include it in this major because there was surprisingly little we had to do to upgrade to it. We were actually able to remove some of the @ts-expect-error directives we had because they were no longer errors.
Redwood Studio and OpenTelemetry (experimental)
This v5 release includes two new experimental features that work hand-in-hand to bring tracing, observability, and a slick UI to view it all in to your project. Here’s a demo of them in action.
Introducing RedwoodJS Studio Preview: Your Dev Companion
You can try them both out via the yarn redwood experimental CLI command:
yarn redwood experimental setup opentelemetry
