📣 v3 Preview

Today, I'm happy to announce the preview of the react-photo-album version 3.0 release candidate.

Please feel free to give it a try and share your feedback. The preview period will be open for at least 30 days since the last breaking change.

Version 3.0 comes with several new exciting features and an internal redesign to reduce the JS bundle size:

1. Replacement of CSS-in-JS styling with an external CSS stylesheet
2. Splitting the all-in-one PhotoAlbum component into three layout-specific components (the bundle is now tree-shakeable)
3. Experimental SSR component (zero-CLS SSR)
4. Experimental InfiniteScroll component (rows and masonry layouts)
5. Experimental ServerPhotoAlbum server component (zero client-side JS bundle)

Here is the overall impact on the JS bundle size (minified gzip):

• rows layout: 2.9 KB (38% decrease)
• columns layout: 2.9 KB (39% decrease)
• masonry layout: 2.3 KB (51% decrease)
• 3-in-1: 3.8 KB (19% decrease)

Breaking changes: #172

Happy coding!
