What is @remote-ui/react?
@remote-ui/react is a library that allows developers to create and manage UI components remotely using React. It is particularly useful for building applications where the UI needs to be rendered in a different environment from where the logic is executed, such as in embedded apps or micro-frontends.
What are @remote-ui/react's main functionalities?
Remote Component Rendering
This feature allows you to create React components that can be rendered remotely. The code sample demonstrates how to create a remote button component that can be used in a React application.
import {createRemoteReactComponent} from '@remote-ui/react';
const RemoteButton = createRemoteReactComponent('Button');
function App() {
return <RemoteButton onClick={() => alert('Clicked!')}>Click me</RemoteButton>;
}
Remote Context Management
This feature provides a way to manage context for remote components. The code sample shows how to set up a RemoteRoot with a RemoteReceiver to manage remote components' lifecycle and context.
import {RemoteRoot, RemoteReceiver} from '@remote-ui/react';
const receiver = new RemoteReceiver();
function App() {
return (
<RemoteRoot receiver={receiver}>
{/* Remote components can be rendered here */}
</RemoteRoot>
);
}
