Every stable release, newest first. Notes are quoted as the maintainers published them.

1. 6.1.2

   5 October 2026
   Adding or removing a component from a compound component was not handled, creating stale updates. Doing this now triggers hmr invalidate on the file and propagates the invalidation to importers.

   Fix compiler.logDiagnostics option not working

   With oxc-transform-react >= 0.148, the logDiagnostics was not working. This version fixes it and requires oxc-transform-react >= 0.152 as a peer dependency if you are using the compiler option. compiler.logDiagnostics option is now deprecated and should be swapped for the builtin compiler.reportDiagnostics.

   Disable refresh for non-jsx with compiler enabled (fix #1478)

   When the compiler was enabled, TS files could trigger fast refresh which would cause runtime errors. The logic now follows what the builtin oxc plugin in Vite does.

2. 6.1.1

   28 August 2026
   Recoverable React Compiler diagnostics are no longer logged by default. Set compiler.logDiagnostics to true to log them through Vite. Fatal diagnostics are always logged and fail the transform.

   Respect environment sourcemap option for React Compiler transform when builder.sharedPlugins is enabled

   The React Compiler transform was using the top-level sourcemap option instead of the environment sourcemap option. This caused a problem when the experimental builder.sharedPlugins was enabled.

3. 6.1.0

   20 August 2026
   Add experimental native React Compiler support.

   Add experimental native React Compiler support

   Add experimental native React Compiler support.

   You can use it by installing oxc-transform-react and enabling it via the compiler option:

   npm install -D oxc-transform-react

   import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
   import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'
   
   export default defineConfig({
     plugins: [
        react({ compiler: true })
     ]
   })

4. 6.0.5

   30 July 2026
   The improved filter in v6.0.3 was non-linear and caused a performance regression (#1349). The filter was changed to be linear to avoid that.

   Fixed the react compiler preset filter to be linear

   When running vite dev with NODE_ENV=production, the app errored with $RefreshSig$ is not defined.

   Fixed $RefreshSig$ is not defined error when running vite dev with NODE_ENV=production

   When running vite dev with NODE_ENV=production, the app errored with $RefreshSig$ is not defined. This error is now fixed.
