Full Release Notes

# 🚀 JSONCrack v5.0.0

A major release focused on modularity, developer experience, and a leaner codebase.

**✨ Highlights:**

* **`jsoncrack-react` npm package:** The graph visualization canvas is now available as a standalone, reusable React component — [jsoncrack-react on npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/jsoncrack-react). Embed interactive JSON graphs in your own apps with a simple `<JSONCrack />` component. Supports light/dark themes, configurable layout directions, zoom controls, and node click callbacks.

* **Monorepo with Turborepo:** Restructured the project into a monorepo with separated workspaces — `apps/www` (website), `apps/vscode` (VS Code extension), and `packages/jsoncrack-react` (reusable canvas). (#573)

* **Next.js 16 & Turbopack:** Upgraded to Next.js v16 with Turbopack support for significantly faster builds and dev server.

* **Streamlined Editor:** Removed low-traction tools, unused components, image handling from graph nodes, and Sentry — resulting in a leaner, faster editor.

**🔧 Improvements:**
* Simplified OptionsMenu with improved accessibility
* Updated hotkey mappings
* Renamed "trackpad gestures" to "zoom on scroll"
* Fixed search in values, tree view crash, node size calculation, file upload errors
* Fixed text editor options for paste JSON Schema (#569)
* Updated node row height for better readability
