[1.1.1] - 2026-03-12

This patch release focuses on Windows stabilization and consistency across different storage and build environments.

  • It includes targeted fixes to reduce platform-specific issues in local development and documentation rendering, especially around path handling, routing, and navigation behavior.
  • Includes a robust fallback for components with empty preview definitions, preventing preview generation failures during large-scale production builds.

[1.1.0] - 2026-03-05

This release introduces two major new features that significantly improve the documentation experience for developers.

Automatic Type Documentation

  • Integrated handoff-docgen for automated component documentation: props and types are now inferred directly from React and TSX components.
  • The properties table automatically shows inferred types, default values, and rich descriptions from both component source and story files.

CSF Support

  • Components can now use the industry-standard Storybook-style Component Story Format (.stories.tsx or .stories.js).
  • Our CSF parsing supports deep type nesting and correctly shows nested items for both Handlebars and CSF components alike.

[1.0.0] - 2025-12-23

The initial stable release of Handoff is designed to help teams build robust design systems and reliable design-to-development pipelines with minimal overhead.

Key Features

  • Automated Figma token and metadata extraction via the Figma REST API.
  • A beautiful, responsive design system documentation app mixing automated and custom content.
  • A robust REST API for consuming tokens, components, and documentation in any application or pipeline.
  • A flexible, hookable API for describing and building components that is agnostic to your choice of framework.
