The Application Kit packages have been released with a minor version v21.8.

This release includes several new features that we would like to present:

Official support for developing Custom Applications in TypeScript, including a new starter template. Read more about TypeScript in the Adding TypeScript page.
New policy option for configuring the audience field when integrating your Custom Application with an external API.
Improved accessibility of different elements using ARIA attributes.
Simpler and more readable list of time zone data, available from the @commercetools-frontend/l10n package.
New React hook useProjectExtensionImageRegex for accessing the project images configuration, available from the @commercetools-frontend/application-shell-connectors package.

Deprecations

The mc-scripts CLI has deprecated some entry points.

Importing the function createPostcssConfig from the main entry point @commercetools-frontend/mc-scripts is now deprecated. Use the entry point @commercetools-frontend/mc-scripts/postcss instead.

const {
  createPostcssConfig,
-} = require('@commercetools-frontend/mc-scripts');
+} = require('@commercetools-frontend/mc-scripts/postcss');

Importing the functions createWebpackConfigForDevelopment and createWebpackConfigForProduction from the main entry point @commercetools-frontend/mc-scripts is now deprecated. Use the entry point @commercetools-frontend/mc-scripts/webpack instead.

const {
  createWebpackConfigForDevelopment,
  createWebpackConfigForProduction,
-} = require('@commercetools-frontend/mc-scripts');
+} = require('@commercetools-frontend/mc-scripts/webpack');
