О пакете lab

Этот пакет содержит инкубационные компоненты, которые еще не готовы к переходу в основной пакет.

The main difference between the lab and the core is how the components are versioned. Having a separate lab package allows us to release breaking changes when necessary while the core package follows a slower-moving policy.

As developers use and test the components and report issues, the maintainers learn more about shortcomings of the components: missing features, accessibility issues, bugs, API design, etc. The older and more used a component is, the less likely it is that new issues will be found and subsequently need to introduce breaking changes.

For a component to be ready to move to the core, the following criteria are considered:

  • It needs to be used. The Material-UI team uses Google Analytics stats among other metrics to evaluate the usage of each component. A lab component with low usage either means that it isn't fully working yet or that there is a low demand for it.
  • It needs to match the code quality of the core components. It doesn't have to be perfect to be a part of the core, but the component should be reliable enough that developers can depend on it.
    • Each component needs type definitions. It is not currently required that a lab component is typed, but it would need to be typed to move to the core.
    • Requires good test coverage. Some of the lab components don't currently have comprehensive tests.
  • Can it be used as leverage to incentivize users to upgrade to the latest major release? The less fragmented the community is, the better.
  • It needs to have a low probability of a breaking change in the short/medium future. For instance, if it needs a new feature that will likely require a breaking change, it may be preferable to delay its promotion to the core.

Инструкция по установке

Установите пакет в каталог проекта командой:

// для npm
npm install @material-ui/lab

// для yarn
yarn add @material-ui/lab

The lab has a peer dependency on the core components. If you are not already using Material-UI in your project, you can install it with:

// with npm
npm install @material-ui/core

// with yarn
yarn add @material-ui/core
