Likely to cause new Flow errors:

  • ES6 react classes without state should now extends React.Component<DefaultProps, Props, void> (previously it was extends React.Component<DefaultProps, Props, {}>)
  • ES6 react classes with state should declare state: State;

New features:

  • Autocomplete for jsx properties
  • Typed JSX intrinsics. This means you can list which jsx intrinsics exist (like div, span, etc) and specify which properties they have.
  • Syntax for declaring variance at definition. For example, interface Generator<+Yield,+Return,-Next> {...}. Still pending transpiler support though.
  • Refining string and union types with string equality now properly refines the types.
  • Support for export * as from @leebyron's Stage1 proposal. Babel support here

Notable bug fixes:

  • Fixed bug with class expressions due to this type
  • Fixed autocomplete for this
  • Recognizes exhaustiveness in switch statements with default case.
  • Fixed "Did not expect BoundT" errors
  • Fixed infinite loop in certain recursive types
  • Fixed an incremental mode issue with deleted files
  • Fixed an incorrect refinement when assigning an object to a variable.

Misc:

  • Some internal errors now will be made user visibile instead of silently failing. They generally mean that Flow has some bug or is making an untrue assumption/assertion. If you see these please report them!
  • Improvements to how we report certain types (type application, optional types) via our APIs
  • Various sentinel improvements, including boolean sentinels
  • Various improvements to the buildin flow libraries (thanks everyone for the pull requests!)
