Change p5 dependency version to minimum 1.4.1 about react HOT 9 CLOSED

I appreciate that, and I wouldn't be asking if I didn't try a dozen other things first, including all of their workaround suggestions and then some. Totally understand treating it as a major release. Thought I'd try!

Give me this evening (it's 8pm in Germany right now) to think about it, you'll know my decision by the morning (German time) 😜

@jamesrweb I left some suggestions in the Discussions thread on how to avoid using a peer dependency

from react.

Makes total sense. There are a couple bugs in the current p5 version that you can see here and here, which they've flagged. As a temporary fix since I'm working on a time-sensitive project that depends on that update, I was hoping to revert back to an older version of p5... but I'm unable to do that too 😅 Hence my request.
Thank you!

What specifically is 1.9 missing that you need from 1.4? The main point is security updates, lowering the version would open the package and consumers of the package up to CVEs which are patched in the latest versions.

I see your comments in those threads, indeed these are issues but do the workarounds suggested such as pixel density not work for your needs? If not, I'll consider making p5 a peer dependency but that would entail a new major release since it would disrupt existing user installs and also the other aforementioned topics would need documented and so on too.

Version 4.3.3 is now released and you should be able to request that version of p5 now @taliacotton. Let us know if it works for you or not and we can either close this issue or work on a fix then.
