@fluidframework/container-definitions

This package contains the interfaces and types concerning the Loader and loading the Container.

Some important interfaces in here include:

• ILoader, IContainer - Interfaces allowing the Host to load and interact with a Container
• IContainerContext - Proxy between the Host and the running instance of a Container, which allows the code supporting the running Container to be swapped out during a session.
• IRuntime / IRuntimeFactory - Contract necessary for the ContainerContext to "boot" a Container at runtime.
• IDeltaManager / IDeltaQueue - Abstraction over the Container's view of the ops being transmitted to/from storage.

Using Fluid Framework libraries

When taking a dependency on a Fluid Framework library's public APIs, we recommend using a ^ (caret) version range, such as ^1.3.4. While Fluid Framework libraries may use different ranges with interdependencies between other Fluid Framework libraries, library consumers should always prefer ^.

If using any of Fluid Framework's unstable APIs (for example, its beta APIs), we recommend using a more constrained version range, such as ~.
