Components: Remove "Experimental" designation #59418
Description
Related: Tracking: stabilization of @wordpress/components props
What problem does this address?
We used to designate a component as "Experimental" as a kind of backdoor to the back-compat policy, but since the policy was made more explicit and the Private API system was introduced, the "Experimental" has become meaningless. We will need to keep supporting them as regular, shipped components.
What is your proposed solution?
- Add non-prefixed exports for all the
__experimentalprefixed exports. (We will still need to keep the prefixed versions for back-compat.) - Update all documentation so they don't include
__experimentalin the import statements. - In Storybook, move all the "Components (Experimental)" items into the main "Components" group. (Use the Storybook redirect mechanism in Storybook: Add mechanism to redirect moved stories #59181 to maintain permalinks.)
Note
This particular issue is only for the components themselves, not the __experimental props, which should be addressed separately.
