It adds new web components (EmptyState, Number) and new properties for Heading, Paragraph, Text, DatePicker, and Page, along with a long list of bug fixes across Modal, Popover, Menu, Tooltip, DatePicker, Select, NumberField, TextArea, DateField, and ColorPicker components. This release is part of Polaris's move to semantic versioning.

## Questions this post answers

### How do I load the Polaris CDN 1.1 release candidate for testing?

Update the script tag URL to https://cdn.shopify.com/shopifycloud/polaris-1.1-rc.js. This release candidate adds new EmptyState and Number web components, new size, month-count, and before-content properties on Heading, Paragraph, Text, DatePicker, and Page, plus numerous bug fixes to Modal, Popover, Menu, Tooltip, DatePicker, Select, and other form components.

_daily.dev helps app developers track Polaris CDN release candidates before rolling them into production._

### Why does setting the same value on a Polaris DatePicker fire duplicate input and change events?

In earlier Polaris CDN versions, setting the same value back onto the date picker (which controlled React components do after a selection) fired a second input and change event, causing handlers to run twice. This is fixed in the 1.1 release candidate, so the events now fire only once, and the picker also expands to fill available width by default.

_developers debugging duplicate event fires in Polaris components can follow fixes like this via daily.dev._

### Why do overlay show and hide events not bubble in Polaris web components?

Polaris CDN 1.1 release candidate fixed the show, hide, aftershow, afterhide, and aftertoggle events on overlay components so they no longer bubble, matching the existing toggle event's behavior. Developers should listen for these events directly on the overlay element itself, or use the matching on* properties instead of relying on event delegation.

_daily.dev keeps developers current on component behavior changes like this Polaris overlay event fix._
