8.0.03 Oct 2026
minWidth and maxWidth on <Box> now only accept numbers ( #1029 ) 7cd7fd9
Breaking

Require React 19.3+ 7829102

minWidth and maxWidth on <Box> now only accept numbers (#1029) 7cd7fd9

Percentage strings were never documented as supported, and Yoga resolved them against the wrong ancestor

stdin, stdout, and stderr are now typed as generic Node.js streams (#981) eb82d8f

This applies to the render() options and to useStdin(), useStdout(), and useStderr(). TTY-only properties like stdout.columns are no longer part of the types

useInput no longer receives unrecognized terminal control sequences (#1014) c76893e

Mouse reports, focus in/out events, cursor position reports, and other terminal replies used to arrive in input with the ESC stripped, as if typed. They are now dropped

New

Add contentOffsetX and contentOffsetY props to <Box> for building scrollable views (#765) 3ba5828

Combine with overflow="hidden". See the scroll example

Add clientWidth and clientHeight to useBoxMetrics() and measureElement() (#988) 3ba5828

The element size excluding borders, which is the space its content can occupy

Accept any Node.js stream for the stdin, stdout, and stderr options of render() (#981) eb82d8f

For example, PassThrough or other Readable/Writable streams. Raw mode is used only when stdin is a TTY with setRawMode()

Skip unchanged line prefixes in incrementalRendering mode (#1036) 91eb50a

Only the changed part of a line is written, which reduces output and flicker

Drop the ws dependency in favor of the native WebSocket for React DevTools (#976) 33567ed

Recognize application keypad Enter as key.return b73ebf4

Fixes

Keep the cursor on the last line when output has no trailing newline (#982) cdc18fa

Restore the terminal cursor below the frame on exit 06385e9

Preserve the cursor position when its component skips rendering 013feb2

Fix incremental rendering of single-line updates, new blank rows, and changed rows (#1039) 9a501e4 507c0c9 509ea75

Fix overflow clipping when both the shorthand and an explicit axis are set, and preserve <Transform> line indices when clipping 4f3c7aa

Fix background color inheritance for <Static> and nested <Text> 753a5f8

Fix fractional percentages being truncated in layout sizes, and restore layout defaults when style props are undefined 274b15a

Fix dangling staticNode reference on indirect subtree removal (#979) 5448e6b

Text

Truncate each line of multi-line text separately (#1006) 4b44934

Keep text at its natural width when there is no room to wrap (#1022) 36f5624

Fix multi-line <Text> vanishing when it starts above the top of the output (#1001) 77aba4a

Strip control characters (except tab and newline) from text content (#1020) 405f751 2fbc26a

Expand tabs, and fix CRLF text overwriting box borders and zero-width spaces overwriting surrounding output 32dc266

Preserve ANSI styles across explicit newlines b419e5c

Preserve combining marks across nested text styles 80b1c9c

Normalize colon and C1 SGR sequences before layout (#1019) b0dfd61 9dfe137 7fe1577

Make disableFocus() blur the focused component as documented, and respect it when new components auto-focus d130588

Prevent collisions in automatically generated focus IDs d130588

Treat an empty string as a valid focus ID f6f7dc7

Other

Fix error source excerpts for file URLs and multiline messages, and treat non-Error throws as rendering failures 81e2451

Fix renderToString() swallowing thrown undefined, and run effect cleanup when output rendering fails 9f7c1d0

Fix useWindowSize() missing resizes before it subscribes fab670b

Track box metrics when a child attaches the ref after mount 53244dc

Reset useAnimation() values while paused f25d312

Use defaults for render() options that are undefined 659249d

Fix unbounded text caches (#986) ad9e3ea

Free the root Yoga node on unmount (#999) 064b4f6

Avoid retaining an exit listener when calling waitUntilExit() after unmount 1fcd380

Migration guide

React 19.3

Upgrade react (and @types/react) to 19.3 or later.

minWidth and maxWidth

Use a number. If you need a relative minimum or maximum width, compute it from useWindowSize() or useBoxMetrics() of the parent.

-<Box minWidth="50%"> +<Box minWidth={Math.floor(columns / 2)}>

Stream types

useStdout().stdout is now typed as NodeJS.WritableStream, so TTY properties like columns and rows are no longer available in the types. Use useWindowSize() instead, which also re-renders on resize.

-const {stdout} = useStdout(); -const width = stdout.columns; +const {columns: width} = useWindowSize();

Control sequences in useInput

If your useInput handler parsed mouse reports, focus events, or other terminal replies from input, it will no longer receive them. Keys that Ink recognizes, including Kitty keyboard protocol events, are not affected.

Ink now uses useEffectEvent internally to avoid re-subscribing input handlers on every render

Breaking

Require Node.js 22 19b5316
Require React 19.2+ cfaebbb
- Ink now uses useEffectEvent internally to avoid re-subscribing input handlers on every render
Pressing Backspace now correctly sets key.backspace instead of key.delete (#634) 321a2e8
- Most terminals send the same byte for Backspace as the Delete key, which caused Ink to misreport it. If you were checking key.delete to handle backspace, switch to key.backspace
key.meta is no longer set to true when Escape is pressed e195912
- Previously a backward-compat shim made plain Escape set both key.escape and key.meta. Now only key.escape is true. key.meta is reserved for actual Alt/Meta modifier combinations

New

Add usePaste hook for handling clipboard paste events fbbeb23
- Automatically enables bracketed paste mode so pasted text arrives as a single string, never misinterpreted as individual key presses by useInput
Add useWindowSize hook 7047795
- Returns {columns, rows} and re-renders automatically on terminal resize
Add useBoxMetrics hook for measuring box dimensions at runtime (#433) 88731d1
Add useAnimation hook for built-in animation support (#142) ada019c
- Provides a frame counter that increments at a configurable interval, with pause/resume support and automatic cleanup on unmount
Add alternateScreen option to render() (#263) 5a60eb9
- Renders into the terminal's alternate screen buffer (like vim or less), restoring the previous terminal content on exit
Add interactive option to render() (#888) 02490f6
- Override automatic interactive-mode detection for environments where the built-in heuristic doesn't fit
Add activeId to useFocusManager() (#661) eb2f470
- Returns the ID of the currently focused component, or undefined if nothing is focused
Add borderBackgroundColor (and per-side variants) to <Box> (#906) d3c6d14
- Set a background color on borders independently from the box content background
Add wrap="hard" to <Text> (#925) 2b1e3a6
- Fills each line to the full column width, breaking words mid-word as needed
Add maxWidth and maxHeight props to <Box> (#713) 9291794
Add aspectRatio, alignContent, position="static", and top/right/bottom/left layout props to <Box> c2f4b86
Kitty keyboard protocol: query all terminals in auto mode instead of a hardcoded allowlist (#895) 3e672b5

Fixes

Fix incremental rendering for trailing newline (#910) c32da0b
Fix useInput crash on unmapped key codes (#902) 969a4f1
Fix CJK text truncation exceeding <Box> width b5f3e3a
Fix splitting wide characters (emoji, CJK) when overlapping writes occur (#930) 06d53f4
Fix dangling staticNode reference (#905) 0dc4dfa

Migration guide

`key.backspace` vs `key.delete`

// Before — physical backspace was reported as key.delete
useInput((input, key) => {
  if (key.delete) { /* was catching physical backspace key */ }
});

// After
useInput((input, key) => {
  if (key.backspace) { /* physical backspace key (0x7F) */ }
  if (key.delete)    { /* actual Delete key (e.g. Fn+Backspace) */ }
});

`key.meta` no longer set on plain Escape

// Before — key.meta was true for both Escape AND Alt+key
useInput((input, key) => {
  if (key.meta) { /* fired on plain Escape too */ }
});

// After — check key.escape explicitly for the Escape key
useInput((input, key) => {
  if (key.escape) { /* plain Escape */ }
  if (key.meta)   { /* Alt/Meta combos only */ }
});

With the addition of `borderStyle` prop to `Box`, you can define custom border style for rendering borders.

New features

Custom border style

fb66872

With the addition of borderStyle prop to Box, you can define custom border style for rendering borders.

<Box
	borderStyle={{
		topLeft: '↘',
		top: '↓',
		topRight: '↙',
		left: '→',
		bottomLeft: '↗',
		bottom: '↑',
		bottomRight: '↖',
		right: '←'
	}}
>
	<Text>Content</Text>
</Box>

Individual colors for each border side

015202c

Box has supported borderColor prop for a while now to change the color of the border. In this release, there are new borderTopColor, borderBottomColor, borderLeftColor and borderRightColor props to change the color for each border side individually.

<Box
	borderStyle="single"
	borderTopColor="magenta"
	borderBottomColor="green"
	borderLeftColor="yellow"
	borderRightColor="cyan"
>
	<Text>So colorful</Text>
</Box>

Toggle visibility of individual border sides

3e0aeab

As you can see, this is a pretty border-themed release. Continuing with the trend, now you toggle visibility of any border side individually via borderTop, borderBottom, borderLeft and borderRight props.

For example, if you wanted to hide top and bottom borders, you'd pass false to borderTop and borderBottom props respectively.

<Box
	borderStyle="single"
	borderTop={false}
	borderBottom={false}
>
	<Text>Content</Text>
</Box>

@jodevsa contributed support for wrapping of flex items in via flexWrap prop, similar to flex-wrap CSS property.

<Box width={2} flexWrap="wrap">
	<Text>A</Text>
	<Text>BC</Text>
</Box>
// A
// B C

Customizable overflow behavior in `Box`

Box supports an overflow prop, which controls the visibility of an element's overflow. It can be set to "visible" (default) and "hidden", which hides any content that overflows element's boundaries. Like in CSS, overflow is a shorthand for setting both overflowX and overflowY.

<Box width={6} overflow="hidden">
    <Box width={16} flexShrink={0}>
    	<Text>Hello World</Text>
    </Box>
</Box>
// Hello

WASM build of Yoga

Thanks to @amitdahan, Ink now uses a WASM build of Yoga provided by the yoga-wasm-web package. Starting with this release, Ink no longer uses yoga-layout-prebuilt package that is lagging behind Yoga releases.

Faster rendering

@AlCalzone contributed an impressive performance boost (~150%) to slice-ansi, which Ink heavily uses for generating output before writing it to the terminal. This release updates Ink to use a newer version of slice-ansi, so this should translate to faster rendering in Ink as well.
