ANNOUNCEMENT: Breaking changes planned for v3

The next version of rjsf will be v3, and we’ll add a few breaking changes to it.

Planned changes

PRs that are nearly ready and will be added in v3:

• refactor: types for withTheme #2279
• No core-js in core #2211
• Drop support for node 8 / 9 #2031
• Drop support for node 10 #2299
• Maintain AJV properties when custom validator is in use. #2002

Other potential changes

If someone makes PRs for these issues, we might be able to get them into v3.

• noHtml5Validate should be true by default #1184
• Fieldset preventing flexbox styling #762

These PRs would be good to add, but still have some work to do on them:

• support if/then/else, breaking change is removing the dependency on json-schema-merge-allof https://github.com/rjsf-team/react-jsonschema-form/pull/1666

Have suggestions for changes / additional items we should add to this list? Feedback welcome!

@epicfaace You also mentioned this old PR of mine to be a breaking change https://github.com/rjsf-team/react-jsonschema-form/pull/1522

might be time to merge it then (or let me know if you want me to revert the breaking change part). personally i would love to see rjsf to be strict mode valid as a part of v3.

@wegry Thanks for checking. I’d like to clean up https://github.com/rjsf-team/react-jsonschema-form/blob/master/docs/3.x upgrade guide.md (ensure that the tone is consistent, everything is clear, etc.) before release because multiple people have added to it and it doesn’t read very well at the moment.
