 # @tanstack/react-store
 
+## 1.0.0-alpha.0
+
+### Major Changes
+
+- [#362](https://github.com/TanStack/store/pull/362) [`5567af4`](https://github.com/TanStack/store/commit/5567af42a4eee4b5befad3acd2f589d3f4deb5bd) - `@tanstack/react-store` now requires React 18 or newer (`peerDependencies` are `react` and `react-dom` `^18.0.0 || ^19.0.0`); support for React 16.8 and 17 has been dropped.
+
+  `useSelector` builds on React's built-in `useSyncExternalStore` with a single memoized selection ref instead of the `use-sync-external-store/shim/with-selector` helper: fewer hook slots and allocations per subscribed component, no per-component passive effect, and the `use-sync-external-store` dependency is gone from consumer bundles. The public API and selection semantics of `useSelector`, `useAtom`, `_useStore` and `useStore` are unchanged.

+- [#389](https://github.com/TanStack/store/pull/389) [`c9bef08`](https://github.com/TanStack/store/commit/c9bef08b7b5e5e458e41622cf030463361b2dac9) - Drop Vue 2 support from `@tanstack/vue-store`. The adapter now requires Vue 3 (`vue: ^3.0.0`) and imports Vue APIs and types directly, removing its `vue-demi` dependency and optional `@vue/composition-api` peer dependency.
+
+  Vue 2 applications must upgrade to Vue 3 or keep using a previous version of `@tanstack/vue-store`. The adapter's public hooks and their behavior are unchanged for Vue 3 applications.
