Description

Hello

Just a question here.

We've begun using paragon in our apps and we noticed a long lag in supporting React 18, which was released in March 2022, but supported by paragon only quite recently as of Jan 2025, an almost 2 year gap for a sustaining engineering release.

We'd like to standardize using paragon across our apps.

Can you provide guidelines used to assess how paragon decides to upgrade to new React releases?

Thanks!
