React Flow 12 is finally out! With a new package name @xyflow/react!
Main features
- SSR / SSG: you can define
width,heightandhandlesfor the nodes. This makes it possible to render a flow on the server and hydrate on the client: SSR guide- Details: In v11,
widthandheightwere set by the library as soon as the nodes got measured. This still happens, but we are now usingmeasured.widthandmeasured.heightto store this information. In the previous versions there was always a lot of confusion aboutwidthandheight. It’s hard to understand, that you can’t use it for passing an actual width or height. It’s also not obvious that those attributes get added by the library. We think that the new implementation solves both of the problems:widthandheightare optional attributes that can be used to define dimensions and the measured dimensions are stored inmeasured.
- Details: In v11,
- Reactive Flows: The new hooks
useHandleConnectionsanduseNodesDataand the newupdateNodeandupdateNodeDatafunctions can be used for managing the data flow between your nodes: computing flows guide- Details: Working with reactive flows is super common. You update node A and want to react on those changes in the connected node B. Until now everyone had to come up with a custom solution. With this version we want to change this and give you performant helpers to handle this. If you are excited about this, you can check out this example:
- Dark mode and css variables: React Flow now comes with a built-in dark mode, that can be toggled by using the new
colorModeprop (”light”, “dark” or “system”): dark mode example- Details: With this version we want to make it easier to switch between dark and light modes and give you a better starting point for dark flows. If you pass colorMode=”dark”, we add the class name “dark” to the wrapper and use it to adjust the styling. To make the implementation for this new feature easier on our ends, we switched to CSS variables for most of the styles. These variables can also be used in user land to customize a flow.
More features and updates
There is more! Besides the new main features, we added some minor things that were on our list for a long time. We also started to use TS docs for better docs. We already started to add some docs for some types and hooks which should improve the developer experience.
useConnectionhook: With this hook you can access the ongoing connection. For example, you can use it for colorizing handles styling a custom connection line based on the current start / end handles.- Controlled
viewport: This is an advanced feature. Possible use cases are to animate the viewport or round the transform for lower res screens for example. This features brings two new props:viewportandonViewportChange. ViewportPortalcomponent: This makes it possible to render elements in the viewport without the need to implement a custom node.onDeletehandler: We added a combined handler foronDeleteNodesandonDeleteEdgesto make it easier to react to deletions.onBeforeDeletehandler: With this handler you can prevent/ manage deletions.isValidConnectionprop: This makes it possible to implement one validation function for all connections. It also gets called for programmatically added edges.autoPanSpeedprop: For controlling the speed while auto panning.- Background component: add
patternClassNameprop to be able to style the background pattern by using a class name. This is useful if you want to style the background pattern with Tailwind for example. onMovecallback gets triggered for library-invoked viewport updates (like fitView or zoom-in)deleteElementsnow returns deleted nodes and deleted edges- add
originattribute for nodes - add
selectableattribute for edges - Node Resizer: child nodes don't move when the group is resized, extent and expand is recognized correctly
- Correct types for
BezierEdge,StepEdge,SmoothStepEdgeandStraightEdgecomponents - New edges created by the library only have
sourceHandleandtargetHandleattributes when those attributes are set. (We used to passsourceHandle: nullandtargetHandle: null) - Edges do not mount/unmount when their z-index change
- connection line knows about the target handle position so that the path is drawn correctly

React Flow v12 is coming soon! We worked hard over the past months and tried to make as few breaking changes as possible (there are some). We are in no rush to release v12, so we’d be happy to hear any early feedback so we can adjust the API or redefine new features before launching stable v12. 🚀 The big topics for this version are:
- Support for SSG/ SSR: you can now render flows on the server
- Reactive flows: new hooks and helper functions to simplify data flows
- Dark mode: a new base style and easy way to switch between built in color modes
Svelte Flow had a big impact on this release as well. While combing through each line of React Flow, we created framework agnostic helpers, found bugs, and made some under the hood improvements. All of these changes are baked into the v12 release as a welcome side-effect of that launch. 🙌🏻 We also improved the performance for larger flows with the help of Ivan.
Migrate from 11 to 12
Before you can try out the new features, you need to do some minor updates:
- A new npm package name: Our name changed from
reactflowto@xyflow/reactand the main component is no longer a default, but a named import:- v11:
import ReactFlow from 'reactflow'; - v12:
import { ReactFlow } from '@xyflow/react';
- v11:
- Node attribute “computed”: All computed node values are now stored in
node.computed- v11:
node.width,node.height,node.positionAbsolute - v12:
node.computed.width,node.computed.heightandnode.computed.positionAbsolute. (node.width/node.heightcan now be used for SSG)
- v11:
- Updating nodes: We are not supporting node updates with object mutations anymore. If you want to update a certain attribute, you need to create a new node.
- v11:
setNodes((nds) => nds.map((node) => { node.hidden = true; return node; }) ); - v12:
setNodes((nds) => nds.map((node) => ({ ...node, hidden: true, })) );
- v11:
- NodeProps:
posX/posYis now calledpositionAbsoluteX/positionAbsoluteY - Typescript only: We simplified types and fixed issues about functions where users could pass a
NodeDatageneric. The new way is to define your own node type for the whole app and then only use that one. The big advantage of this is, that you can have multiple node types with different data structures and always be able to distinguish by checking thenode.typeattribute.- v11:
applyNodeChange<NodeData, NodeType> - v12:
type MyNodeType = Node<{ value: number }, ‘number’> | Node<{ value: string }, ‘text’>; applyNodeChange<MyNodeType> - affected functions:
useNodes,useNodesState,useEdgesState,applyNodeChange,onInit,applyEdgeChanges,MiniMapProps
- v11:
- Removal of deprecated functions:
getTransformForBounds(new name:getViewportForBounds),getRectOfNodes(new name:getNodesBounds)project(new name:screenToFlowPosition)getMarkerEndId
Main features
Now that you successfully migrated to v12, you can use all the fancy features. As mentioned above, the biggest updates for v12 are:
- SSR / SSG: you can define
width,heightandhandlesfor the nodes. This makes it possible to render a flow on the server and hydrate on the client: codesandbox- Details: In v11,
widthandheightwere set by the library as soon as the nodes got measured. This still happens, but we are now usingcomputed.widthandcomputed.heightto store this information. ThepositionAbsoluteattribute also gets stored incomputed. In the previous versions there was always a lot of confusion aboutwidthandheight. It’s hard to understand, that you can’t use it for passing an actual width or height. It’s also not obvious that those attributes get added by the library. We think that the new implementation solves both of the problems:widthandheightare optional attributes that can be used to define dimensions and everything that is set by the library, is stored incomputed.

Internal changes
These changes are not really user-facing, but it could be important for folks who are working with the React Flow store:
- The biggest internal change is that we created a new package @xyflow/system with framework agnostic helpers that can be used be React Flow and Svelte Flow
- XYDrag for handling dragging node(s) and selection
- XYPanZoom for controlling the viewport panning and zooming
- XYHandle for managing new connections
- We replaced the
nodeInternalsmap with anodesarray. We added a newnodeLookupmap that serves as a lookup, but we are not creating a new map object on any change so it’s really only useful as a lookup. - We removed
connectionNodeId,connectionHandleId,connectionHandleTypefrom the store and addedconnectionStartHandle.nodeId,connectionStartHandle.handleId, … - add
data-idto edges
With v12 the reactflow package was renamed to @xyflow/react - you can find the v11 source and the reactflow changelog on the v11 branch.
