This release includes several changes across the @sanity/astro and @sanity/visual-editing packages, resulting in a more stable Visual Editing experience with Astro and a smoother initial setup:

• A React 19 peer dependency issue was fixed in @sanity/astro version 3.1.9 that caused errors in new projects setup using Astro’s CLI tool.
• Added support for libraries publishing pre-compiled code with the React Compiler to the Astro codebase.
• Previously, Visual Editing overlays would lose their titles/preview information after a change had been made when working with an Astro project. This is now fixed.

• The sanity package now exports an experimental EditPortal component, which allows users to create Dialog or Popover components that include Presence and scroll virtualization out of the box, like so:

import React, {useRef, useState} from 'react'
+import {EditPortal} from 'sanity'

 export const CustomFormDialog: React.FC<Props> = ({parentProps, paths, onClose}) => {
   return (
-     <Dialog header="Edit Link" id="edit-link" animate width={600} onClose={onClose} zOffset={1000}>
+     <EditPortal header="Edit Link" id="edit-link" animate width={600} onClose={onClose} zOffset={1000}>
       ...rest
-      </Dialog>
+     </EditPortal>

• Fixes a case where the commands schema extract, manifest extract, graphql deploy, documents validate or schema validate would never complete.
• Fixes an issue in Vision where the cursor would sometimes jump to the beginning of the editor.
