React - v1.0.1

All ArtisanPack UI React packages support both React 18 and React 19.

Peer Dependency Range

{
  "peerDependencies": {
    "react": "^18.0.0 || ^19.0.0",
    "react-dom": "^18.0.0 || ^19.0.0"
  }
}

What Works on Both Versions

All components, hooks, and providers work identically on React 18 and React 19:

• ThemeProvider and useTheme
• All form, layout, navigation, data display, feedback, and utility components
• ToastProvider and useToast
• All @artisanpack-ui/react-laravel hooks and wrappers

React 19 Features

The component library does not require React 19 features, but it is fully compatible with React 19 applications that use:

• React Server Components — All components are client components ('use client' is not currently needed since the package targets CSR and Inertia SSR, but components work fine when imported into client component boundaries).
• use() hook — You can use React 19's use() in your own code alongside ArtisanPack UI components.
• Actions and useActionState — ArtisanPack UI form components work with React 19 actions. You can use useActionState in place of useInertiaForm for non-Inertia projects.
• ref as a prop — Components that accept refs use forwardRef, which works on both React 18 and 19.

React 18 Considerations

• The ThemeProvider uses useSyncExternalStore (available since React 18) to track OS color scheme changes.
• No React 18-only APIs are used — upgrading to React 19 requires no changes to ArtisanPack UI code.

Verified Compatibility

A full code audit confirms that the library uses no React 19-only APIs:

All ref-accepting components use forwardRef, which works on both React 18 and 19. Named imports (import { useState } from 'react') are used throughout — no legacy import React patterns.

Testing Across Versions

The CI pipeline tests against both React 18 and React 19 to ensure compatibility. If you encounter a version-specific issue, please open an issue.
