The announcement

Short excerpt from Shopify:

The Polaris 2.0 release candidate is now available for embedded App Home interfaces.

Checks for app interfaces

  • If your app loads the named component library, compare its current dependency or CDN URL with the release described by Shopify.
  • If you test a new release, exercise the affected components with empty, loading and error states. Treat a preview or release candidate according to its documented status.

These checks are conditional. Confirm relevance and release requirements in the full announcement before changing your implementation.
