Releases: adobe/react-spectrum
November 20, 2024 Release
We’re excited to announce that our Accordion and Disclosure components are now generally available! This includes Disclosure and DisclosureGroup in React Aria, as well as Disclosure and Accordion in React Spectrum. These components now also use the hidden="until-found" API currently supported in Chrome to enable searching collapsed content with ctrl + F.
We are also introducing ToggleButtonGroup in React Aria Components, which supports arrow key navigation with single and multiple selection modes. In addition, Menu now supports the ability to create Section-level selection groups, allowing you to mix actions, single, and multiple selection within the same menu. Menus can also be nested inside Dialog popovers to enable more complex use cases.
Last but not least, React Spectrum and React Aria are now Typescript Strict compliant! This has been an extremely large, multi-year effort and we thank you for your patience. This helps us reduce bugs, particularly related to null checks, resulting in more correct type definitions for our APIs.
As always, thanks to everyone in our community for your feedback and contributions! ❤️

September 30, 2024 Release
Happy fall! 🍁 We’re excited to announce that our color picker components are now generally available! This includes ColorPicker, ColorArea, ColorField, ColorSlider, ColorSwatch, ColorSwatchPicker, and ColorWheel. These enable you to build fully customizable color pickers, including accessible color descriptions for screen reader support.
In addition, we’ve introduced a new pending state for buttons in React Aria Components, allowing you to display a progress spinner to indicate that an action is in progress. It also handles screen reader announcements and disables other interactions, except for focus, during the pending state.
We're also advancing the React Aria Components Tree and Spectrum TreeView to beta, and have added some basic documentation. In alpha, we have new Disclosure and DisclosureGroup components in React Aria Components, which can be used to build accordions and other collapsible panels.
Huge thanks as always to everyone who contributed to this release! 😍

July 22, 2024 Release
For this summer release, we have been busy working on improving virtualization in many of our Spectrum components including TableView, ListView, and ListBox. We have significantly reduced the complexity of our implementation, resulting in smaller bundle size, better performance, and improved stability. In our testing, this resulted in 14x faster per-frame render times on large tables due to better reuse of DOM nodes as you scroll. We are also working on bringing virtualization support to React Aria Components, which is available as an unstable API in this version.
Our color components are also moving to RC! Focus management within Toasts have also been greatly improved, making announcements from screen readers clearer and more consistent. Thanks to @thmsfchtnr, press events now include coordinates, enabling interactions like our new animated ripple button example. And finally, in preparation for React 19, this release is now compatible with React 19 RC.
Thank you to our ever growing list of contributors! ❤️

May 1, 2024 Release
We have a huge release today! Its a GA bonanza 🎊 – Submenu, unavailable menu items, DropZone and FileTrigger components are now in GA. Check our blog post on the intricacies of the submenu interactions and how we handled them.
In addition, we have added a suite of new color components including ColorPicker, ColorArea, ColorField, ColorSlider, ColorSwatch, ColorSwatchPicker, ColorWheel, currently in beta. These enable you to build fully customizable color pickers, including accessible color descriptions for screen reader support.
The first alpha of TreeView has also been released. This was a highly requested component and includes support for expanding, collapsing, multi-selection, keyboard navigation, and interactive children. Documentation will follow soon, check out our React Spectrum storybook and React Aria Components storybook source code for examples.
We have also improved our integration with client side routers, accepting options to control router-specific behaviors such as scrolling, replacing instead of pushing to the history, base path, etc. For convenience, all collection items in React Aria Components (e.g. MenuItem) now also support isDisabled and onAction props directly, rather than needing to be defined on the root collection.
Last but not least, we want to acknowledge all the wonderful contributors who have dedicated their time to improve our libraries. A special thanks to @ryo-manba and @sookmax, who are responsible for multiple bug fixes to Switch, IME support, ListBox, ComboBox, as well as adding new features such as additional state attributes, hover events, and language support. Thank you!! 😍

We have been busy working on our new Submenu feature which we are excited to release as an alpha. We have also made improvements to our overlay positioning code to better handle pinch zooming and spatial awareness.
