React 19 lets a context object be rendered directly as the provider instead of Context.Provider

In React 19 the context object itself can be rendered as the provider with a value prop, so the .Provider suffix is no longer needed. Context.Provider is deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future major; the React 19 migration recipe includes a codemod that rewrites existing usage.

Context.Consumer is deprecated too: read context with useContext, or with the new use function when the read must be conditional.

Nothing about the value semantics changed. A context whose value is an object literal still re-renders every consumer on each parent render unless the value is memoised, and splitting a large context into two is still the way to avoid waking unrelated subscribers. Mixing both provider forms during a migration is safe; they compile to the same thing.
