Emotion 11

We’re planning to do a major version of Emotion soon, we don’t have a definite timeline but it should be out before the end of the year, most likely earlier.

We don’t currently have any massive API changes planned but there will be some package renaming which should be possible to migrate with codemods alone. (This isn’t anything like the v9 -> v10 change)

The big changes that we are currently doing:

• Package renaming (#1635)
• Use hooks internally which means a better tree in React DevTools and a smaller bundle size (#967)
• Rewrite TypeScript definitions (#1501)
• Allow mapping of imports in the babel plugin (#1220)

We’ll update this issue for larger planned changes. For smaller changes, please see the v11 milestone. The issues on the milestone aren’t necessarily going to be addressed in v11 but we’ll consider them.

We are already doing pre-releases which will be available on the next dist tag on npm.

When is v11 going to release?

When it’s ready 😉

@anilanar wow, that’s great to hear!

In other news - we are going to ship the first RC this week (almost identical to the latest v11 release) and probably ship it as stable within a month.
