# Changesets
Hello and welcome! This folder has been automatically generated by `@changesets/cli`, a build tool that works
with multi-package repos, or single-package repos to help you version and publish your code. You can
find the full documentation for it [in the repository](https://github.com/changesets/changesets).
## Adding a changeset
To add a changeset, run `pnpm changeset` in the root of the repository. This will prompt you to select
which packages have changed and what type of version bump (major, minor, or patch) should be applied.
All `@json-render/*` packages are versioned together -- a changeset for any one of them will bump all
packages to the same version.

Instructions for AI coding agents working with this codebase.
## Package Management
**Always check the latest version before installing a package.**
Before adding or updating any dependency, verify the current latest version on npm:
```bash
npm view <package-name> version
```
Or check multiple packages at once:
```bash
npm view ai version
npm view @ai-sdk/provider-utils version
npm view zod version
```
This ensures we don't install outdated versions that may have incompatible types or missing features.
## Code Style
- Do not use emojis in code or UI
- Do not use barrel files (index.ts that re-exports from other files)
- Use shadcn CLI to add shadcn/ui components: `pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add <component>`

## Renderers
### React (UI)
```tsx
import { defineRegistry, Renderer } from "@json-render/react";
import { schema } from "@json-render/react";
// Element tree spec format
const spec = {
root: {
type: "Card",
props: { title: "Hello" },

import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core";
import { schema } from "@json-render/react-native/schema";
import {
standardComponentDefinitions,
standardActionDefinitions,
} from "@json-render/react-native/catalog";
import { defineRegistry, Renderer } from "@json-render/react-native";
// 25+ standard components included
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: { ...standardComponentDefinitions },
actions: standardActionDefinitions,
});
const { registry } = defineRegistry(catalog, { components: {} });
<Renderer spec={spec} registry={registry} />
```
### Remotion (Video)
```tsx
import { Player } from "@remotion/player";
import { Renderer, schema, standardComponentDefinitions } from "@json-render/remotion";
// Timeline spec format
const spec = {
composition: { id: "video", fps: 30, width: 1920, height: 1080, durationInFrames: 300 },
tracks: [{ id: "main", name: "Main", type: "video", enabled: true }],
clips: [
{ id: "clip-1", trackId: "main", component: "TitleCard", props: { title: "Hello" }, from: 0, durationInFrames: 90 }
],
audio: { tracks: [] }
};
<Player
component={Renderer}
inputProps={{ spec }}
durationInFrames={spec.composition.durationInFrames}
fps={spec.composition.fps}
compositionWidth={spec.composition.width}
compositionHeight={spec.composition.height}
/>
```
## Features
### Streaming (SpecStream)
Stream AI responses progressively:
```typescript
import { createSpecStreamCompiler } from "@json-render/core";
const compiler = createSpecStreamCompiler<MySpec>();
// Process chunks as they arrive
const { result, newPatches } = compiler.push(chunk);
setSpec(result); // Update UI with partial result
// Get final result
const finalSpec = compiler.getResult();
```
### AI Prompt Generation
Generate system prompts from your catalog:
```typescript
const systemPrompt = catalog.prompt();
// Includes component descriptions, props schemas, available actions
```
### Conditional Visibility
Show/hide components based on data, auth, or complex logic:

}
```
### Dynamic Props
```json
{
"type": "AdminPanel",
"visible": { "auth": "signedIn" }
}
```
Any prop value can be data-driven using expressions:
### Rich Actions
Actions with confirmation dialogs and callbacks:
```json
{
"type": "Icon",
"type": "Button",
"props": {
"name": { "$cond": { "eq": [{ "path": "/activeTab" }, "home"] }, "$then": "home", "$else": "home-outline" },
"color": { "$cond": { "eq": [{ "path": "/activeTab" }, "home"] }, "$then": "#007AFF", "$else": "#8E8E93" }
"label": "Refund Payment",
"action": {
"name": "refund",
"params": {
"paymentId": { "path": "/selected/id" },
"amount": { "path": "/refund/amount" }
},
"confirm": {
"title": "Confirm Refund",
"message": "Refund ${/refund/amount} to customer?",
"variant": "danger"
},
"onSuccess": { "set": { "/ui/success": true } },
"onError": { "set": { "/ui/error": "$error.message" } }
}
}
}
```
Two expression forms:
- **`{ "$path": "/state/key" }`** -- reads a value from the data model
- **`{ "$cond": <condition>, "$then": <value>, "$else": <value> }`** -- evaluates a condition (same syntax as visibility conditions) and picks a branch
### Actions
Components can trigger actions, including the built-in `setState` action:
### Built-in Validation
```json
{
"type": "Pressable",
"props": { "action": "setState", "actionParams": { "path": "/activeTab", "value": "home" } },
"children": ["home-icon"]
"type": "TextField",
"props": {
"label": "Email",
"valuePath": "/form/email",
"checks": [
{ "fn": "required", "message": "Email is required" },
{ "fn": "email", "message": "Invalid email" }
],
"validateOn": "blur"
}
}
```
The `setState` action updates the state model directly, which re-evaluates visibility conditions and dynamic prop expressions.

# A2UI Integration
Use `@json-render/core` to support [A2UI](https://a2ui.org) natively.
<div className="rounded-lg border border-amber-500/50 bg-amber-500/10 p-4 mb-8">
<p className="text-sm text-amber-700 dark:text-amber-300">
<strong>Concept:</strong> This page demonstrates how json-render can support A2UI. The examples are illustrative and may require adaptation for production use.
</p>
</div>
## Native A2UI Support
`@json-render/core` is schema-agnostic. Define a catalog that matches A2UI's format and build a renderer that understands it - no conversion layer needed.
## Example A2UI Message
A2UI uses an adjacency list model - a flat list of components with ID references. This makes it easy to patch individual components:
```json
{
"surfaceUpdate": {
"surfaceId": "main",
"components": [
{
"id": "header",
"component": {
"Text": {
"text": {"literalString": "Book Your Table"},
"usageHint": "h1"
}
}
},
{
"id": "date-picker",
"component": {
"DateTimeInput": {
"label": {"literalString": "Select Date"},
"value": {"path": "/reservation/date"},
"enableDate": true
}
}
},
{
"id": "submit-btn",
"component": {
"Button": {
"child": "submit-text",
"action": {"name": "confirm_booking"}
}
}
},
{
"id": "submit-text",
"component": {
"Text": {"text": {"literalString": "Confirm Reservation"}}
}
}
]
}
}
```
## Define the A2UI Catalog
```typescript
import { createCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { z } from 'zod';
// A2UI BoundValue schema
const BoundString = z.object({
literalString: z.string().optional(),
path: z.string().optional(),
}).refine(d => d.literalString || d.path);
// A2UI children schema
const Children = z.object({
explicitList: z.array(z.string()).optional(),
template: z.object({
dataBinding: z.string(),
componentId: z.string(),
}).optional(),
}).refine(d => d.explicitList || d.template);
export const a2uiCatalog = createCatalog({
components: {
Text: {
description: 'Displays text content',
props: z.object({
text: BoundString,
usageHint: z.enum(['h1', 'h2', 'h3', 'body', 'caption']).optional(),
}),
},
Button: {
description: 'Interactive button',
props: z.object({
child: z.string(),
action: z.object({
name: z.string(),
context: z.array(z.object({
key: z.string(),
value: BoundString,
})).optional(),
}).optional(),
}),
},
DateTimeInput: {
description: 'Date/time picker',
props: z.object({
label: BoundString.optional(),
value: BoundString.optional(),
enableDate: z.boolean().optional(),
enableTime: z.boolean().optional(),
}),
},
Column: {
description: 'Vertical layout',
props: z.object({
children: Children,
}),
},
Row: {
description: 'Horizontal layout',
props: z.object({
children: Children,
}),
},
// Add more A2UI standard components...
},
});
```
## Define the A2UI Schema
Define the schema for A2UI message types:
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
// Component instance in the adjacency list
const A2UIComponent = z.object({
id: z.string(),
component: z.record(z.record(z.unknown())),
});
// Surface update message
const SurfaceUpdate = z.object({
surfaceId: z.string().optional(),
components: z.array(A2UIComponent),
});
// State model update message
const StateModelUpdate = z.object({
surfaceId: z.string().optional(),
path: z.string().optional(),
contents: z.array(z.object({
key: z.string(),
valueString: z.string().optional(),
valueNumber: z.number().optional(),
valueBoolean: z.boolean().optional(),
valueMap: z.array(z.unknown()).optional(),
})),
});
// Begin rendering message
const BeginRendering = z.object({
surfaceId: z.string().optional(),
root: z.string(),
catalogId: z.string().optional(),
});
// Complete A2UI message schema
export const A2UIMessage = z.object({
surfaceUpdate: SurfaceUpdate.optional(),
dataModelUpdate: StateModelUpdate.optional(),
beginRendering: BeginRendering.optional(),
deleteSurface: z.object({ surfaceId: z.string() }).optional(),
});
```
## Build an A2UI Renderer
Create a renderer that processes the A2UI adjacency list format:
```tsx
import { a2uiCatalog } from './catalog';
// Component registry
const components = {
Text: ({ text, usageHint }) => {
const Tag = usageHint?.startsWith('h') ? usageHint : 'p';
return <Tag>{text}</Tag>;
},
Button: ({ children, action, onAction }) => (
<button onClick={() => onAction?.(action)}>{children}</button>
),
DateTimeInput: ({ label, value, onChange }) => (
<label>
{label}
<input type="date" value={value} onChange={e => onChange?.(e.target.value)} />
</label>
),
Column: ({ children }) => <div className="flex flex-col gap-2">{children}</div>,
Row: ({ children }) => <div className="flex gap-2">{children}</div>,
};
// Render A2UI surface
export function renderA2UI(
componentMap: Map<string, any>,
dataModel: Record<string, any>,
rootId: string,
onAction?: (action: any) => void
) {
function resolveBoundValue(bound: any) {
if (!bound) return undefined;
if (bound.literalString) return bound.literalString;
if (bound.path) {
const parts = bound.path.replace(/^\//, '').split('/');
let value = dataModel;
for (const p of parts) value = value?.[p];
return value;
}
}
function render(id: string): React.ReactNode {
const comp = componentMap.get(id);
if (!comp) return null;
const [type, props] = Object.entries(comp.component)[0];
const Component = components[type];
if (!Component) return null;
// Resolve props
const resolved: any = {};
for (const [key, val] of Object.entries(props as any)) {
if (key === 'child') {
resolved.children = render(val as string);
} else if (key === 'children' && val?.explicitList) {
resolved.children = val.explicitList.map(render);
} else if (val && typeof val === 'object' && ('literalString' in val || 'path' in val)) {
resolved[key] = resolveBoundValue(val);
} else {
resolved[key] = val;
}
}
return <Component key={id} {...resolved} onAction={onAction} />;
}
return render(rootId);
}
```
## Usage
```tsx
const [components] = useState(() => new Map());
const [dataModel, setDataModel] = useState({});
const [rootId, setRootId] = useState<string | null>(null);
// Process A2UI messages
function handleMessage(msg: any) {
if (msg.surfaceUpdate) {
for (const comp of msg.surfaceUpdate.components) {
components.set(comp.id, comp);
}
}
if (msg.dataModelUpdate) {
setDataModel(prev => ({ ...prev, ...msg.dataModelUpdate.contents }));
}
if (msg.beginRendering) {
setRootId(msg.beginRendering.root);
}
}
// Render

const VerticalAlignment = z.enum(['top', 'center', 'bottom']);
const FontSize = z.enum(['small', 'default', 'medium', 'large', 'extraLarge']);
const FontWeight = z.enum(['lighter', 'default', 'bolder']);
const ImageSize = z.enum(['auto', 'stretch', 'small', 'medium', 'large']);
const ImageStyle = z.enum(['default', 'person']);
// Base element properties shared by most elements
const BaseElement = {
id: z.string().optional(),
isVisible: z.boolean().optional(),
separator: z.boolean().optional(),
spacing: Spacing.optional(),
};
export const adaptiveCardsCatalog = createCatalog({

## Building an Adaptive Cards Renderer
Create a renderer that processes Adaptive Cards JSON. See the [A2UI integration](/docs/a2ui) page for a similar pattern. The key is mapping each Adaptive Card element type to a React component, resolving nested `items` and `columns` arrays recursively.
## Usage Example
Render an Adaptive Card and handle actions:
```tsx
'use client';
import { AdaptiveCardRenderer } from './adaptive-card-renderer';
const card = {
type: 'AdaptiveCard' as const,
version: '1.5',
body: [
{
type: 'TextBlock',
text: 'Contact Form',
size: 'large',
weight: 'bolder',
},
{
type: 'Input.Text',
id: 'name',
label: 'Your Name',
placeholder: 'Enter your name',
},
{
type: 'Input.Text',
id: 'message',
label: 'Message',
placeholder: 'Enter your message',
isMultiline: true,
},
],
actions: [
{
type: 'Action.Submit',
title: 'Send',
data: { action: 'submitForm' },
},
],
};
export function ContactCard() {
const handleAction = (action: any, inputData: Record<string, unknown>) => {
console.log('Action:', action);
console.log('Input data:', inputData);
// Send to your backend
fetch('/api/submit', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({ action, data: inputData }),
});
};
return <AdaptiveCardRenderer card={card} onAction={handleAction} />;
}
```
## Handling Action.Execute for Bots
For bot scenarios, handle `Action.Execute` with the verb and data:
```typescript
interface ActionExecutePayload {
action: {
type: 'Action.Execute';
verb: string;
data?: unknown;
};
inputs: Record<string, unknown>;
}
async function handleBotAction(payload: ActionExecutePayload) {
const response = await fetch('/api/bot/action', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({
verb: payload.action.verb,
data: payload.action.data,
inputs: payload.inputs,
}),
});
// Bot may return a new card to render
const result = await response.json();
if (result.card) {
return result.card; // New AdaptiveCard to render
}
}
```

# AG-UI Integration
Use json-render to support [AG-UI](https://docs.copilotkit.ai/ag-ui) (Agent User Interaction Protocol) from CopilotKit.
<div className="rounded-lg border border-amber-500/50 bg-amber-500/10 p-4 mb-8">
<p className="text-sm text-amber-700 dark:text-amber-300">
<strong>Concept:</strong> This page demonstrates how json-render can support AG-UI. The examples are illustrative and may require adaptation for production use.
</p>
</div>
## What is AG-UI?
AG-UI is an open protocol for connecting AI agents to user interfaces. It provides a standardized way for agents to render UI components, handle user input, and manage state. The protocol uses events streamed over HTTP to update the UI in real-time.
## AG-UI Event Types
AG-UI defines several event types for agent-UI communication:
- `TEXT_MESSAGE_START` / `TEXT_MESSAGE_CONTENT` / `TEXT_MESSAGE_END` — Streaming text messages
- `TOOL_CALL_START` / `TOOL_CALL_ARGS` / `TOOL_CALL_END` — Tool/function calls
- `STATE_SNAPSHOT` / `STATE_DELTA` — State updates
- `CUSTOM` — Custom events for UI rendering
### Example AG-UI Event Stream
```json
{"type": "RUN_STARTED", "threadId": "thread-123", "runId": "run-456"}
{"type": "TEXT_MESSAGE_START", "messageId": "msg-1", "role": "assistant"}
{"type": "TEXT_MESSAGE_CONTENT", "messageId": "msg-1", "delta": "Here's a dashboard for you:"}
{"type": "TEXT_MESSAGE_END", "messageId": "msg-1"}
{"type": "TOOL_CALL_START", "toolCallId": "tc-1", "toolCallName": "render_ui"}
{"type": "TOOL_CALL_ARGS", "toolCallId": "tc-1", "delta": "{\"component\": \"Dashboard\", \"props\": {\"title\": \"Sales\"}}"}
{"type": "TOOL_CALL_END", "toolCallId": "tc-1"}
{"type": "RUN_FINISHED"}
```
## Define the AG-UI Schema
Define schemas for AG-UI event types:
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
// Base event schema
const BaseEvent = z.object({
type: z.string(),
timestamp: z.number().optional(),
});
// Text message events
const TextMessageStart = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('TEXT_MESSAGE_START'),
messageId: z.string(),
role: z.enum(['user', 'assistant']),
});
const TextMessageContent = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('TEXT_MESSAGE_CONTENT'),
messageId: z.string(),
delta: z.string(),
});
const TextMessageEnd = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('TEXT_MESSAGE_END'),
messageId: z.string(),
});
// Tool call events
const ToolCallStart = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('TOOL_CALL_START'),
toolCallId: z.string(),
toolCallName: z.string(),
parentMessageId: z.string().optional(),
});
const ToolCallArgs = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('TOOL_CALL_ARGS'),
toolCallId: z.string(),
delta: z.string(),
});
const ToolCallEnd = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('TOOL_CALL_END'),
toolCallId: z.string(),
});
// State events
const StateSnapshot = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('STATE_SNAPSHOT'),
snapshot: z.record(z.unknown()),
});
const StateDelta = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('STATE_DELTA'),
delta: z.array(z.object({
op: z.enum(['add', 'remove', 'replace']),
path: z.string(),
value: z.unknown().optional(),
})),
});
// Custom event for UI components
const CustomEvent = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('CUSTOM'),
name: z.string(),
value: z.unknown(),
});
// Run lifecycle events
const RunStarted = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('RUN_STARTED'),
threadId: z.string(),
runId: z.string(),
});
const RunFinished = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('RUN_FINISHED'),
});
const RunError = BaseEvent.extend({
type: z.literal('RUN_ERROR'),
message: z.string(),
code: z.string().optional(),
});
// Union of all events
export const AGUIEvent = z.discriminatedUnion('type', [
TextMessageStart,
TextMessageContent,
TextMessageEnd,
ToolCallStart,
ToolCallArgs,
ToolCallEnd,
StateSnapshot,
StateDelta,
CustomEvent,
RunStarted,
RunFinished,
RunError,
]);
export type AGUIEvent = z.infer<typeof AGUIEvent>;
```
## Define the AG-UI Catalog
Create a catalog for UI components that agents can render:
```typescript
import { createCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { z } from 'zod';
export const aguiCatalog = createCatalog({
components: {
Container: {
description: 'A container for grouping elements',
props: z.object({
direction: z.enum(['row', 'column']).optional(),
gap: z.enum(['none', 'sm', 'md', 'lg']).optional(),
padding: z.enum(['none', 'sm', 'md', 'lg']).optional(),
}),
},
Card: {
description: 'A card with optional title',
props: z.object({
title: z.string().optional(),
description: z.string().optional(),
}),
},
Text: {
description: 'Text content',
props: z.object({
content: z.string(),
variant: z.enum(['body', 'heading', 'caption', 'code']).optional(),
}),
},
Metric: {
description: 'Displays a metric value',
props: z.object({
label: z.string(),
value: z.union([z.string(), z.number()]),
change: z.number().optional(),
format: z.enum(['number', 'currency', 'percent']).optional(),
}),
},
Button: {
description: 'Interactive button',
props: z.object({
label: z.string(),
variant: z.enum(['primary', 'secondary', 'outline', 'ghost']).optional(),
disabled: z.boolean().optional(),
}),
},
Alert: {
description: 'Alert message',
props: z.object({
message: z.string(),
type: z.enum(['info', 'success', 'warning', 'error']).optional(),
}),
},
// Add more components...
},
actions: {
submit: {
description: 'Submit form data',
params: z.object({ formId: z.string() }),
},
navigate: {
description: 'Navigate to a URL',
params: z.object({ url: z.string() }),
},
callback: {
description: 'Trigger a callback to the agent',
params: z.object({
name: z.string(),
data: z.record(z.unknown()).optional(),
}),
},
},
});
```
## Build an AG-UI Event Processor
Process AG-UI events and render UI components:
```tsx
'use client';
import React, { useState, useCallback } from 'react';
import { AGUIEvent } from './schema';
interface AGUIState {
messages: Array<{
id: string;
role: 'user' | 'assistant';
content: string;
}>;
toolCalls: Map<string, {
name: string;
args: string;
result?: unknown;
}>;
state: Record<string, unknown>;
isRunning: boolean;
}
export function useAGUI() {
const [aguiState, setAGUIState] = useState<AGUIState>({
messages: [],
toolCalls: new Map(),
state: {},
isRunning: false,
});
const processEvent = useCallback((event: AGUIEvent) => {
switch (event.type) {
case 'RUN_STARTED':
setAGUIState(prev => ({ ...prev, isRunning: true }));
break;
case 'RUN_FINISHED':
setAGUIState(prev => ({ ...prev, isRunning: false }));
break;
case 'TEXT_MESSAGE_START':
setAGUIState(prev => ({
...prev,
messages: [...prev.messages, {
id: event.messageId,
role: event.role,
content: '',
}],
}));
break;
case 'TEXT_MESSAGE_CONTENT':
setAGUIState(prev => ({
...prev,
messages: prev.messages.map(msg =>
msg.id === event.messageId
? { ...msg, content: msg.content + event.delta }
: msg
),
}));
break;
case 'TOOL_CALL_START':
setAGUIState(prev => {
const toolCalls = new Map(prev.toolCalls);
toolCalls.set(event.toolCallId, { name: event.toolCallName, args: '' });
return { ...prev, toolCalls };
});
break;
case 'TOOL_CALL_ARGS':
setAGUIState(prev => {
const toolCalls = new Map(prev.toolCalls);
const tc = toolCalls.get(event.toolCallId);
if (tc) {
toolCalls.set(event.toolCallId, { ...tc, args: tc.args + event.delta });
}
return { ...prev, toolCalls };
});
break;
case 'STATE_SNAPSHOT':
setAGUIState(prev => ({ ...prev, state: event.snapshot }));
break;
}
}, []);
return { state: aguiState, processEvent };
}
```
## Usage Example
```tsx
'use client';
import { useAGUI } from './use-agui';
import { renderToolCallUI } from './renderer';
export function AGUIChat() {
const { state, processEvent } = useAGUI();
async function startRun(prompt: string) {
const response = await fetch('/api/agent', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({ prompt }),
});
const reader = response.body?.getReader();
const decoder = new TextDecoder();
while (reader) {
const { done, value } = await reader.read();
if (done) break;
const lines = decoder.decode(value).split('\n').filter(Boolean);
for (const line of lines) {
const event = JSON.parse(line);
processEvent(event);
}
}
}
return (
<div className="space-y-4">
{state.messages.map(msg => (
<div key={msg.id} className={`p-3 rounded ${
msg.role === 'assistant' ? 'bg-muted' : 'bg-primary/10'
}`}>
{msg.content}
</div>
))}
{Array.from(state.toolCalls.values()).map((tc, i) => (
<div key={i}>{renderToolCallUI(tc)}</div>
))}
<form onSubmit={(e) => {
e.preventDefault();
const input = e.currentTarget.querySelector('input');
if (input?.value) {
startRun(input.value);
input.value = '';
}
}}>
<input
type="text"
placeholder="Ask the agent..."
className="w-full px-4 py-2 border rounded"
disabled={state.isRunning}
/>
</form>
</div>
);
}
```

# AI SDK Integration
Use json-render with the Vercel AI SDK for seamless streaming.
## Installation
```bash
npm install ai
```
## API Route Setup
```typescript
// app/api/generate/route.ts
import { streamText } from 'ai';
import { catalog } from '@/lib/catalog';
export async function POST(req: Request) {
const { prompt, currentTree } = await req.json();
// Generate system prompt from catalog
const systemPrompt = catalog.prompt();
// Optionally include current UI state for context
const contextPrompt = currentTree
? `\n\nCurrent UI state:\n${JSON.stringify(currentTree, null, 2)}`
: '';
const result = streamText({
model: 'anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5',
system: systemPrompt + contextPrompt,
prompt,
});
return result.toTextStreamResponse();
}
```
## Client-Side Hook
Use `useUIStream` on the client:
```tsx
'use client';
import { useUIStream, Renderer } from '@json-render/react';
function GenerativeUI() {
const { spec, isStreaming, error, send } = useUIStream({
api: '/api/generate',
});
return (
<div>
<button
onClick={() => send('Create a dashboard with metrics')}
disabled={isStreaming}
>
{isStreaming ? 'Generating...' : 'Generate'}
</button>
{error && <p className="text-red-500">{error.message}</p>}
<Renderer spec={spec} registry={registry} loading={isStreaming} />
</div>
);
}
```
## Prompt Engineering
The `catalog.prompt()` method creates an optimized system prompt that:
- Lists all available components and their props
- Describes available actions
- Specifies the expected JSON output format
- Includes examples for better generation
## Custom System Prompts
Pass custom rules to tailor AI behavior:
```typescript
const systemPrompt = catalog.prompt({
customRules: [
'Always use Card components for grouping related content',
'Prefer horizontal layouts (Row) for metrics',
'Use consistent spacing with padding="md"',
],
});

# @json-render/core
Core types, schemas, and utilities.
## defineCatalog
Creates a type-safe catalog definition with schema validation.
```typescript
import { defineCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { schema } from '@json-render/react';
function defineCatalog<T extends ZodType>(
s: T,
config: CatalogConfig
): Catalog
// Use the React schema for standard UI specs
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: {...},
actions: {...},
});
```
### CatalogConfig
```typescript
interface CatalogConfig {
components: Record<string, ComponentDefinition>;
actions?: Record<string, ActionDefinition>;
functions?: Record<string, FunctionDefinition>;
}
interface ComponentDefinition {
props: ZodObject; // Use .nullable() for optional props
slots?: string[]; // Named slots (e.g., ["default"])
description?: string; // Help AI understand usage
}
interface ActionDefinition {
params?: ZodObject;
description?: string;
}
interface FunctionDefinition {
description?: string;
}
```
### Catalog Instance
The returned catalog provides methods for AI prompt generation, validation, and schema export:
```typescript
interface Catalog {
// Data
readonly data: CatalogConfig; // The catalog configuration
readonly componentNames: string[]; // List of component names
readonly actionNames: string[]; // List of action names
// AI Prompt Generation
prompt(options?: PromptOptions): string;
// Validation
validate(spec: unknown): SpecValidationResult;
zodSchema(): z.ZodType; // Get the Zod schema for specs
// Export
jsonSchema(): object; // Export as JSON Schema
}
interface PromptOptions {
system?: string; // Custom system message intro
customRules?: string[]; // Additional rules to append
}
interface SpecValidationResult<T> {
success: boolean;
data?: T; // Validated spec (if success)
error?: z.ZodError; // Validation errors (if failed)
}
```
### Catalog Methods
```typescript
// Generate AI system prompt
const systemPrompt = catalog.prompt({
customRules: ["Always use Card as root element"],
});
// Validate a spec from AI
const result = catalog.validate(aiOutput);
if (result.success) {
render(result.data);
} else {
console.error(result.error);
}
// Get Zod schema for custom validation
const schema = catalog.zodSchema();
const parsed = schema.safeParse(aiOutput);
// Export as JSON Schema (for structured outputs)
const jsonSchema = catalog.jsonSchema();
```
## Schema System
json-render uses a flexible schema system that defines both the AI output format (spec) and what catalogs must provide. Each renderer package provides its own schema (e.g., @json-render/react exports `schema`).
### schema
The schema for flat UI element trees. This is exported from @json-render/react.
```typescript
import { defineCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { schema } from '@json-render/react';
// schema defines:
// - Spec shape: { root: string, elements: Record<string, UIElement> }
// - Catalog shape: { components: {...}, actions: {...} }
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: {
Card: {
props: z.object({ title: z.string() }),
slots: ["default"],
description: "Container card",
},
},
actions: {
submit: {
params: z.object({ formId: z.string() }),
description: "Submit a form",
},
},
});
```
### defineSchema
Create custom schemas for different output formats (e.g., page-based, block-based).
```typescript
import { defineSchema } from '@json-render/core';
const mySchema = defineSchema((s) => ({
// What the AI outputs (spec)
spec: s.object({
title: s.string(),
blocks: s.array(s.object({
type: s.ref("catalog.blocks"),
content: s.any(),
})),
}),
// What the catalog must provide
catalog: s.object({
blocks: s.map({
props: s.zod(),
description: s.string(),
}),
}),
}));
```
### Schema Builder API
The schema builder provides these methods:
```typescript
// Primitive types
s.string() // String value
s.number() // Number value
s.boolean() // Boolean value
s.any() // Any value
// Compound types
s.array(item) // Array of items
s.object({ ... }) // Object with shape
s.record(value) // Record/map with value type
// Catalog references (for type safety)
s.ref("catalog.components") // Reference to catalog key (becomes enum)
s.propsOf("catalog.components") // Props schema from catalog entry
// Catalog definitions
s.map({ props: s.zod(), ... }) // Map of named entries with shared shape
s.zod() // Placeholder for user-provided Zod schema
// Modifiers
s.optional() // Mark field as optional
```
## Zod Schemas
Pre-built Zod schemas for common json-render types:
### Dynamic Value Schemas
```typescript
import {
DynamicValueSchema, // string | number | boolean | null | { path: string }
DynamicStringSchema, // string | { path: string }
DynamicNumberSchema, // number | { path: string }
DynamicBooleanSchema, // boolean | { path: string }
} from '@json-render/core';
// Dynamic values can be literals or data path references
type DynamicValue<T> = T | { path: string };
// Example: a prop that can be a literal or bound to data
const schema = z.object({
label: DynamicStringSchema, // "Hello" or { path: "/user/name" }
});
```
### Visibility & Logic Schemas
```typescript
import {
VisibilityConditionSchema, // Full visibility condition
LogicExpressionSchema, // Logic operators (and, or, not, eq, gt, etc.)
} from '@json-render/core';
// Use in component props that need conditional rendering
const schema = z.object({
visible: VisibilityConditionSchema.optional(),
});
```
### Action Schemas
```typescript
import {
ActionSchema, // Full action definition
ActionConfirmSchema, // Confirmation dialog config
ActionOnSuccessSchema, // Success handler config
ActionOnErrorSchema, // Error handler config
} from '@json-render/core';
```
### Validation Schemas
```typescript
import {
ValidationCheckSchema, // Single validation check
ValidationConfigSchema, // Full validation config with checks array
} from '@json-render/core';
```
## SpecStream
SpecStream is json-render's streaming format for progressively building specs from JSONL patches.
### createSpecStreamCompiler
Create a streaming compiler that incrementally builds a spec:
```typescript
import { createSpecStreamCompiler } from '@json-render/core';
const compiler = createSpecStreamCompiler<MySpec>();
// Process streaming chunks
const { result, newPatches } = compiler.push(chunk);
// Get final result
const spec = compiler.getResult();
// Reset for reuse
compiler.reset();
```
### compileSpecStream
Compile an entire SpecStream string at once:
```typescript
import { compileSpecStream } from '@json-render/core';
const jsonl = `{"op":"add","path":"/root","value":{}}
{"op":"add","path":"/root/type","value":"Card"}`;
const spec = compileSpecStream<MySpec>(jsonl);
```
### Low-Level Utilities
```typescript
import {
parseSpecStreamLine,
applySpecStreamPatch,
} from '@json-render/core';
// Parse a single line
const patch = parseSpecStreamLine('{"op":"add","path":"/root","value":{}}');
// Apply patch to object (mutates in place)
const obj = {};
applySpecStreamPatch(obj, patch);
```
### SpecStream Types
Fully compliant with [RFC 6902](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6902):
```typescript
interface SpecStreamLine {
op: 'add' | 'remove' | 'replace' | 'move' | 'copy' | 'test';
path: string;
value?: unknown; // Required for add, replace, test
from?: string; // Required for move, copy
}
interface SpecStreamCompiler<T> {
push(chunk: string): { result: T; newPatches: SpecStreamLine[] };
getResult(): T;
getPatches(): SpecStreamLine[];
reset(): void;
}
```
## Utility Functions
### Path Utilities
```typescript
import { getByPath, setByPath } from '@json-render/core';
// Get value by JSON Pointer path
const value = getByPath(data, '/user/name'); // "Alice"
// Set value by path (mutates object)
setByPath(data, '/user/email', 'alice@example.com');
```
### resolveDynamicValue
```typescript
import { resolveDynamicValue } from '@json-render/core';
// Resolve a dynamic value against data
const name = resolveDynamicValue("Hello", data); // "Hello"
const name2 = resolveDynamicValue({ path: "/user/name" }, data); // "Alice"
```
### findFormValue
```typescript
import { findFormValue } from '@json-render/core';
// Find form values regardless of path format
// Checks: params.name, params["form.name"], data["form.name"], data.form.name
const value = findFormValue("name", params, data);
```
## evaluateVisibility
Evaluates a visibility condition against data and auth state.
```typescript
function evaluateVisibility(
condition: VisibilityCondition | undefined,
data: Record<string, unknown>,
auth?: AuthState
): boolean
type VisibilityCondition =
| { path: string }
| { auth: 'signedIn' | 'signedOut' | string }
| { and: VisibilityCondition[] }
| { or: VisibilityCondition[] }
| { not: VisibilityCondition }
| { eq: [DynamicValue, DynamicValue] }
| { gt: [DynamicValue, DynamicValue] }
| { gte: [DynamicValue, DynamicValue] }
| { lt: [DynamicValue, DynamicValue] }
| { lte: [DynamicValue, DynamicValue] };
```
## Types
### UIElement
```typescript
interface UIElement {
key: string;
type: string;
props: Record<string, unknown>;
children?: string[]; // Keys of child elements
visible?: VisibilityCondition;
validation?: ValidationSchema;
}
```
### Spec (Element Tree)
```typescript
interface Spec {
root: string | null; // Key of root element
elements: Record<string, UIElement>;
}
```
Elements are stored as a flat map with string keys. The tree structure is built by following the `children` arrays.
### Action
```typescript
interface Action {
name: string;
params?: Record<string, unknown>;
confirm?: {
title: string;
message: string;
variant?: 'default' | 'danger';
};
onSuccess?: { set: Record<string, unknown> };
onError?: { set: Record<string, unknown> };
}
```
### ValidationSchema
```typescript
interface ValidationSchema {
checks: ValidationCheck[];
validateOn?: 'change' | 'blur' | 'submit';
}
interface ValidationCheck {
fn: string;
args?: Record<string, unknown>;
message: string;
}

# Catalog
The catalog defines what AI can generate. It's your guardrail.
## What is a Catalog?
A catalog is a schema that defines:
- **Components** — UI elements AI can create (with props and optional slots)
- **Actions** — Operations AI can trigger
- **Functions** — Custom validation or transformation functions
## Creating a Catalog
```typescript
import { defineCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { schema } from '@json-render/react';
import { z } from 'zod';
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: {
// Define each component with its props schema
Card: {
props: z.object({
title: z.string(),
description: z.string().nullable(),
padding: z.enum(['sm', 'md', 'lg']).nullable(),
}),
slots: ["default"], // Can contain other components
description: "Container card for grouping content",
},
Metric: {
props: z.object({
label: z.string(),
valuePath: z.string(), // JSON Pointer to data
format: z.enum(['currency', 'percent', 'number']),
}),
description: "Display a single metric value",
},
},
actions: {
submit_form: {
params: z.object({
formId: z.string(),
}),
description: 'Submit a form',
},
export_data: {
params: z.object({
format: z.enum(['csv', 'pdf', 'json']),
}),
description: 'Export data in various formats',
},
},
});
```
## Component Definition
Each component in the catalog has:
```typescript
{
props: z.object({...}), // Zod schema for props (use .nullable() for optional)
slots?: string[], // Named slots for children (e.g., ["default"])
description?: string, // Help AI understand when to use it
}
```
Use `slots: ["default"]` for components that can contain children. The slot name corresponds to where child elements are rendered.
## Generating AI Prompts
Use the `catalog.prompt()` method to generate a system prompt for AI:
```typescript
// Generate a system prompt from your catalog
const systemPrompt = catalog.prompt();
// Or with custom rules for the AI
const customPrompt = catalog.prompt({
customRules: [
"Always use Card as the root element for forms",
"Group related inputs in a Stack with direction=vertical",
],
});
// Pass this to your AI model as the system prompt
```

# Changelog
Notable changes and updates to json-render.
## v0.5.0
February 2026
### New: @json-render/react-native
Full React Native renderer with 25+ standard components, data binding, visibility, actions, and dynamic props. Build AI-generated native mobile UIs with the same catalog-driven approach as web.
```tsx
import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core";
import { schema } from "@json-render/react-native/schema";
import {
standardComponentDefinitions,
standardActionDefinitions,
} from "@json-render/react-native/catalog";
import { defineRegistry, Renderer } from "@json-render/react-native";
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: { ...standardComponentDefinitions },
actions: standardActionDefinitions,
});
const { registry } = defineRegistry(catalog, { components: {} });
<Renderer spec={spec} registry={registry} />
```
Includes standard components for layout (Container, Row, Column, ScrollContainer, SafeArea, Pressable, Spacer, Divider), content (Heading, Paragraph, Label, Image, Avatar, Badge, Chip), input (Button, TextInput, Switch, Checkbox, Slider, SearchBar), feedback (Spinner, ProgressBar), and composite (Card, ListItem, Modal).
### New: Event System
Components now use `emit` to fire named events instead of directly dispatching actions. The element's `on` field maps events to action bindings, decoupling component logic from action handling.
```tsx
// Component emits a named event
Button: ({ props, emit }) => (
<button onClick={() => emit?.("press")}>{props.label}</button>
),
// Element spec maps events to actions
{
"type": "Button",
"props": { "label": "Submit" },
"on": { "press": { "action": "submit", "params": { "formId": "main" } } }
}
```
### New: Repeat/List Rendering
Elements can now iterate over state arrays using the `repeat` field. Child elements use `$item` and `$index` tokens in `$path` expressions to reference the current item.
```json
{
"type": "Column",
"repeat": { "path": "/posts", "key": "id" },
"children": ["post-card"]
}
```
```json
{
"type": "Card",
"props": { "title": { "$path": "$item/title" } }
}
```
### New: User Prompt Builder
Build structured user prompts with optional spec refinement and state context:
```typescript
import { buildUserPrompt } from "@json-render/core";
// Fresh generation
buildUserPrompt({ prompt: "create a todo app" });
// Refinement (patch-only mode)
buildUserPrompt({ prompt: "add a toggle", currentSpec: spec });
// With runtime state
buildUserPrompt({ prompt: "show data", state: { todos: [] } });
```
### New: Spec Validation
Validate spec structure and auto-fix common issues:
```typescript
import { validateSpec, autoFixSpec } from "@json-render/core";
const { valid, issues } = validateSpec(spec, catalog);
const fixed = autoFixSpec(spec);
```
### Improved: State Management
`DataProvider` has been renamed to `StateProvider` with a clearer API. State is now a first-class part of specs -- elements can bind to state via `$path` expressions, and the built-in `setState` action updates state directly.
### Improved: AI Prompts
Schema prompts now include streaming best practices, repeat/list examples, and state patching guidance. Schemas can also define `defaultRules` that are always included in generated prompts.
### Improved: Documentation
- All documentation pages migrated to MDX
- AI-powered documentation chat
- Dynamic Open Graph images for all docs pages
- Improved playground
### Breaking Changes
- `DataProvider` renamed to `StateProvider`
- `useData` renamed to `useStateStore`, `useDataValue` to `useStateValue`, `useDataBinding` to `useStateBinding`
- `onAction` renamed to `emit` in component context
- `DataModel` type renamed to `StateModel`
- `Action` type renamed to `ActionBinding` (old name still available but deprecated)

## v0.4.0
February 2026
### New: Custom Schema System
Create custom output formats with `defineSchema`. Each renderer now defines its own schema, enabling completely different spec formats for different use cases.
```typescript
import { defineSchema } from "@json-render/core";
const mySchema = defineSchema((s) => ({
spec: s.object({
pages: s.array(s.object({
title: s.string(),
blocks: s.array(s.ref("catalog.blocks")),
})),
}),
catalog: s.object({
blocks: s.map({ props: s.zod(), description: s.string() }),
}),
}), {
promptTemplate: myPromptTemplate,
});
```
### New: Component Slots
Components can now define which slots they accept. Use `["default"]` for regular children, or named slots like `["header", "footer"]` for more complex layouts.
```typescript
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: {
Card: {
props: z.object({ title: z.string() }),
slots: ["default"], // accepts children
description: "A card container",
},
Layout: {
props: z.object({}),
slots: ["header", "content", "footer"], // named slots
description: "Page layout with header, content, footer",
},
},
});
```
### New: AI Prompt Generation
Catalogs now generate AI system prompts automatically with `catalog.prompt()`. The prompt includes all component definitions, props schemas, and action descriptions - ensuring the AI only generates valid specs.
```typescript
import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core";
import { schema } from "@json-render/react/schema";
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: { /* ... */ },
actions: { /* ... */ },
});
// Generate system prompt for AI
const systemPrompt = catalog.prompt();
// Use with any AI SDK
const result = await streamText({
model: "claude-haiku-4.5",
system: systemPrompt,
prompt: userMessage,
});
```
### New: @json-render/remotion
Generate AI-powered videos with Remotion. Define video catalogs, stream timeline specs, and render with the Remotion Player.
```tsx
import { Player } from "@remotion/player";
import { Renderer, schema, standardComponentDefinitions } from "@json-render/remotion";
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: standardComponentDefinitions,
transitions: standardTransitionDefinitions,
});
<Player
component={Renderer}
inputProps={{ spec }}
durationInFrames={spec.composition.durationInFrames}
fps={spec.composition.fps}
compositionWidth={spec.composition.width}
compositionHeight={spec.composition.height}
/>
```
Includes 10 standard video components (TitleCard, TypingText, SplitScreen, etc.), 7 transition types, and the ClipWrapper utility for custom components.
### New: SpecStream
SpecStream is json-render's streaming format for progressively building specs from JSONL patches. The new compiler API makes it easy to process streaming AI responses.
```typescript
import { createSpecStreamCompiler } from "@json-render/core";
const compiler = createSpecStreamCompiler<MySpec>();
// Process streaming chunks
const { result, newPatches } = compiler.push(chunk);
setSpec(result); // Update UI with partial result
```
### Improved: Dashboard Example
The dashboard example is now a full-featured accounting dashboard with:
- Persistent SQLite database with Drizzle ORM
- RESTful API for customers, invoices, expenses, accounts
- Draggable widget reordering
- AI-powered widget generation with streaming
- Real data binding to database records
### Improved: Documentation
- Interactive playground for testing specs
- New guides: Custom Schema, Streaming, Code Export
- Full API reference for all packages
- Integration guides: A2UI, AG-UI, Adaptive Cards, OpenAPI
### Breaking Changes
- `UITree` type renamed to `Spec`
- Schema is now imported from renderer packages (`@json-render/react`) not core
- `defineCatalog` now requires a schema as first argument

# Code Export
Export generated UI as standalone code for your framework.
## Overview
While json-render is designed for dynamic rendering, you can export generated UI as static code. The code generation is intentionally project-specific so you have full control over:
- Component templates (standalone, no json-render dependencies)
- Package.json and project structure
- Framework-specific patterns (Next.js, Remix, etc.)
- How data is passed to components
## Architecture
Code export is split into two parts:
### 1. @json-render/codegen (utilities)
Framework-agnostic utilities for building code generators:
```typescript
import {
traverseSpec, // Walk the UI spec
collectUsedComponents, // Get all component types used
collectStatePaths, // Get all data binding paths
collectActions, // Get all action names
serializeProps, // Convert props to JSX string
} from '@json-render/codegen';
```
### 2. Your Project (generator)
Custom code generator specific to your project and framework:
```typescript
// lib/codegen/generator.ts
import { collectUsedComponents, serializeProps } from '@json-render/codegen';
export function generateNextJSProject(spec: Spec): GeneratedFile[] {
const components = collectUsedComponents(spec);
return [
{ path: 'package.json', content: '...' },
{ path: 'app/page.tsx', content: '...' },
// ... component files
];
}
```
## Example: Next.js Export
See the dashboard example for a complete implementation that exports:
- `package.json` - Dependencies and scripts
- `tsconfig.json` - TypeScript config
- `next.config.js` - Next.js config
- `app/layout.tsx` - Root layout
- `app/globals.css` - Global styles
- `app/page.tsx` - Generated page with data
- `components/ui/*.tsx` - Standalone components
## Standalone Components
The exported components are standalone with no json-render dependencies. They receive data as props instead of using hooks:
```tsx
// Generated component (standalone)
interface MetricProps {
label: string;
valuePath: string;
data?: Record<string, unknown>;
}
export function Metric({ label, valuePath, data }: MetricProps) {
const value = data ? getByPath(data, valuePath) : undefined;
return (
<div>
<span>{label}</span>
<span>{formatValue(value)}</span>
</div>
);
}
```
## Using the Utilities
### traverseSpec
```typescript
import { traverseSpec } from '@json-render/codegen';
traverseSpec(spec, (element, depth, parent) => {
console.log(' '.repeat(depth * 2) + element.type);
});
```
### collectUsedComponents
```typescript
import { collectUsedComponents } from '@json-render/codegen';
const components = collectUsedComponents(spec);
// Set { 'Card', 'Metric', 'Chart', 'Table' }
// Generate only the needed component files
for (const component of components) {
files.push({
path: `components/ui/${component.toLowerCase()}.tsx`,
content: componentTemplates[component],
});
}
```
### serializeProps
```typescript
import { serializeProps } from '@json-render/codegen';
const propsStr = serializeProps({
title: 'Dashboard',
columns: 3,
disabled: true,
});
// 'title="Dashboard" columns={3} disabled'
```
## Try It
Run the dashboard example and click "Export Project" to see code generation in action:
```bash
cd examples/dashboard
pnpm dev
# Open http://localhost:3001
# Generate a widget, then click "Export Project"
```

# Custom Schema & Renderer
Build your own schema and renderer with `@json-render/core`.
## Overview
`@json-render/core` is schema-agnostic. While `@json-render/react` provides a ready-to-use schema and renderer, you can create your own to match any JSON structure - whether it's a domain-specific format, an existing protocol, or something entirely custom.
## 1. Define Your Schema
Start by defining the JSON structure your system will use. Here's an example of a simple dashboard schema:
```json
{
"layout": "grid",
"columns": 2,
"widgets": [
{
"type": "metric",
"title": "Revenue",
"value": "$12,345",
"trend": "up"
},
{
"type": "chart",
"title": "Sales",
"chartType": "line",
"dataKey": "salesData"
},
{
"type": "table",
"title": "Recent Orders",
"columns": ["id", "customer", "amount"],
"dataKey": "orders"
}
]
}
```
## 2. Create the Catalog
Define a catalog that describes your components and validates props:
```typescript
import { createCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { z } from 'zod';
export const dashboardCatalog = createCatalog({
components: {
metric: {
description: 'Displays a single metric value',
props: z.object({
title: z.string(),
value: z.string(),
trend: z.enum(['up', 'down', 'flat']).optional(),
change: z.string().optional(),
}),
},
chart: {
description: 'Renders a chart visualization',
props: z.object({
title: z.string(),
chartType: z.enum(['line', 'bar', 'pie', 'area']),
dataKey: z.string(),
height: z.number().optional(),
}),
},
table: {
description: 'Displays tabular data',
props: z.object({
title: z.string(),
columns: z.array(z.string()),
dataKey: z.string(),
pageSize: z.number().optional(),
}),
},
text: {
description: 'Displays text content',
props: z.object({
content: z.string(),
variant: z.enum(['heading', 'body', 'caption']).optional(),
}),
},
},
});
```
## 3. Define the Root Schema
Create a schema for the overall document structure:
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
const WidgetSchema = z.object({
type: z.string(),
title: z.string().optional(),
// Additional props validated by catalog
}).passthrough();
export const DashboardSchema = z.object({
layout: z.enum(['grid', 'stack', 'tabs']),
columns: z.number().optional(),
widgets: z.array(WidgetSchema),
});
export type Dashboard = z.infer<typeof DashboardSchema>;
export type Widget = z.infer<typeof WidgetSchema>;
```
## 4. Build the Renderer
Create a renderer that maps your schema to React components:
```tsx
import React from 'react';
import { dashboardCatalog } from './catalog';
import type { Dashboard, Widget } from './schema';
// Widget component registry
const widgetComponents: Record<string, React.FC<any>> = {
metric: ({ title, value, trend, change }) => (
<div className="p-4 rounded-lg border">
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground">{title}</p>
<p className="text-2xl font-bold">{value}</p>
{trend && (
<p className={`text-sm ${trend === 'up' ? 'text-green-500' : 'text-red-500'}`}>
{trend === 'up' ? '+' : '-'}{change}
</p>
)}
</div>
),
chart: ({ title, chartType, data }) => (
<div className="p-4 rounded-lg border">
<p className="font-medium mb-2">{title}</p>
<div className="h-48 bg-muted rounded flex items-center justify-center">
{/* Your chart library here */}
<span className="text-muted-foreground">{chartType} chart</span>
</div>
</div>
),
table: ({ title, columns, data }) => (
<div className="p-4 rounded-lg border">
<p className="font-medium mb-2">{title}</p>
<table className="w-full text-sm">
<thead>
<tr>
{columns.map((col: string) => (
<th key={col} className="text-left p-2 border-b">{col}</th>
))}
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
{data?.map((row: any, i: number) => (
<tr key={i}>
{columns.map((col: string) => (
<td key={col} className="p-2 border-b">{row[col]}</td>
))}
</tr>
))}
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
),
text: ({ content, variant = 'body' }) => {
const className = {
heading: 'text-xl font-bold',
body: 'text-base',
caption: 'text-sm text-muted-foreground',
}[variant];
return <p className={className}>{content}</p>;
},
};
// Main renderer
export function DashboardRenderer({
spec,
data = {},
}: {
spec: Dashboard;
data?: Record<string, any>;
}) {
const layoutClass = {
grid: `grid gap-4 ${spec.columns ? `grid-cols-${spec.columns}` : 'grid-cols-2'}`,
stack: 'flex flex-col gap-4',
tabs: 'space-y-4',
}[spec.layout];
return (
<div className={layoutClass}>
{spec.widgets.map((widget, index) => {
const Component = widgetComponents[widget.type];
if (!Component) {
console.warn(`Unknown widget type: ${widget.type}`);
return null;
}
// Resolve data references
const widgetData = widget.dataKey ? data[widget.dataKey] : undefined;
return (
<Component
key={index}
{...widget}
data={widgetData}
/>
);
})}
</div>
);
}
```
## 5. Generate LLM Prompts
Use the catalog to generate system prompts for AI:
```typescript
const systemPrompt = dashboardCatalog.prompt({
customRules: [
'Use metric widgets for single KPI values',
'Use chart widgets for time-series data',
'Use table widgets for lists of records',
'Limit dashboards to 6 widgets maximum',
],
});
// Use with any LLM
const response = await generateText({
model: 'gpt-4',
system: systemPrompt,
prompt: 'Create a sales dashboard with revenue, orders, and a chart',
});
```
## 6. Validate Specs
Validate incoming specs against your schema:
```typescript
import { validate } from '@json-render/core';
function validateDashboard(spec: unknown) {
// Validate root structure
const rootResult = DashboardSchema.safeParse(spec);
if (!rootResult.success) {
return { valid: false, errors: rootResult.error.errors };
}
// Validate each widget against catalog
const errors: string[] = [];
for (const widget of rootResult.data.widgets) {
const result = validate(
{ type: widget.type, props: widget },
dashboardCatalog
);
if (!result.valid) {
errors.push(...result.errors.map(e => `${widget.type}: ${e}`));
}
}
return { valid: errors.length === 0, errors };
}
```
## Usage Example
```tsx
'use client';
import { useState } from 'react';
import { DashboardRenderer } from './renderer';
import type { Dashboard } from './schema';
const initialSpec: Dashboard = {
layout: 'grid',
columns: 2,
widgets: [
{ type: 'metric', title: 'Revenue', value: '$12,345', trend: 'up' },
{ type: 'metric', title: 'Orders', value: '156', trend: 'up' },
{ type: 'chart', title: 'Sales Trend', chartType: 'line', dataKey: 'sales' },
{ type: 'table', title: 'Recent Orders', columns: ['id', 'customer', 'amount'], dataKey: 'orders' },
],
};
const data = {
sales: [/* chart data */],
orders: [
{ id: '001', customer: 'Acme Inc', amount: '$500' },
{ id: '002', customer: 'Globex', amount: '$750' },
],
};
export function MyDashboard() {
const [spec, setSpec] = useState(initialSpec);
return <DashboardRenderer spec={spec} data={data} />;
}
```

export const metadata = { title: "Data Binding" }
# Data Binding
Connect UI components to your application data using JSON Pointer paths.
## JSON Pointer Paths
json-render uses JSON Pointer (RFC 6901) for data paths:
```json
// Given this data:
{
"user": {
"name": "Alice",
"email": "alice@example.com"
},
"metrics": {
"revenue": 125000,
"growth": 0.15
}
}
// These paths access:
"/user/name" -> "Alice"
"/metrics/revenue" -> 125000
"/metrics/growth" -> 0.15
```
## StateProvider
Wrap your app with StateProvider to enable data binding:
```tsx
import { StateProvider } from '@json-render/react';
function App() {
const initialState = {
user: { name: 'Alice' },
form: { email: '', message: '' },
};
return (
<StateProvider initialState={initialState}>
{/* Your UI */}
</StateProvider>
);
}
```
## Reading Data
Use `useStateValue` for read-only access:
```tsx
import { useStateValue } from '@json-render/react';
function UserGreeting() {
const name = useStateValue('/user/name');
return <h1>Hello, {name}!</h1>;
}
```
## Two-Way Binding
Use `useStateBinding` for read-write access:
```tsx
import { useStateBinding } from '@json-render/react';
function EmailInput() {
const [email, setEmail] = useStateBinding('/form/email');
return (
<input
type="email"
value={email || ''}
onChange={(e) => setEmail(e.target.value)}
/>
);
}
```
## Using the State Context
Access the full state context for advanced use cases:
```tsx
import { useStateStore } from '@json-render/react';
function StateDebugger() {
const { data, setState, getValue, setValue } = useStateStore();
// Read any path
const revenue = getValue('/metrics/revenue');
// Write any path
const updateRevenue = () => setValue('/metrics/revenue', 150000);
// Replace all state
const resetState = () => setState({ user: {}, form: {} });
return <pre>{JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)}</pre>;
}
```
## In JSON UI Trees
AI can reference data paths in component props:
```json
{
"type": "Metric",
"props": {
"label": "Total Revenue",
"valuePath": "/metrics/revenue",
"format": "currency"
}
}
```

# OpenAPI Integration
Use json-render to generate dynamic forms and UIs from [OpenAPI/Swagger](https://swagger.io/specification/) schemas.
<div className="rounded-lg border border-amber-500/50 bg-amber-500/10 p-4 mb-8">
<p className="text-sm text-amber-700 dark:text-amber-300">
<strong>Concept:</strong> This page demonstrates how json-render can support OpenAPI schemas. The examples are illustrative and may require adaptation for production use.
</p>
</div>
## Why OpenAPI?
OpenAPI specifications describe your API's endpoints, request bodies, and response schemas. By converting OpenAPI schemas to json-render specs, you can:
- Automatically generate forms for API endpoints
- Display API responses with type-aware rendering
- Keep your UI in sync with your API schema
- Let AI generate UIs that match your API contracts
## Example OpenAPI Schema
A typical OpenAPI schema for a request body:
```json
{
"openapi": "3.0.0",
"paths": {
"/users": {
"post": {
"summary": "Create a new user",
"operationId": "createUser",
"requestBody": {
"required": true,
"content": {
"application/json": {
"schema": {
"$ref": "#/components/schemas/CreateUserRequest"
}
}
}
}
}
}
},
"components": {
"schemas": {
"CreateUserRequest": {
"type": "object",
"required": ["email", "name"],
"properties": {
"name": {
"type": "string",
"description": "User's full name",
"minLength": 1,
"maxLength": 100
},
"email": {
"type": "string",
"format": "email",
"description": "User's email address"
},
"age": {
"type": "integer",
"minimum": 0,
"maximum": 150,
"description": "User's age"
},
"role": {
"type": "string",
"enum": ["admin", "user", "guest"],
"default": "user",
"description": "User's role"
},
"preferences": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"newsletter": {
"type": "boolean",
"default": false
},
"theme": {
"type": "string",
"enum": ["light", "dark", "system"]
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
```
## Define an OpenAPI-to-UI Catalog
Create components that map to OpenAPI data types:
```typescript
import { createCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { z } from 'zod';
export const openapiCatalog = createCatalog({
components: {
Form: {
description: 'API form container',
props: z.object({
operationId: z.string(),
endpoint: z.string(),
method: z.enum(['GET', 'POST', 'PUT', 'PATCH', 'DELETE']),
title: z.string().optional(),
description: z.string().optional(),
}),
},
StringField: {
description: 'String input field',
props: z.object({
name: z.string(),
label: z.string(),
description: z.string().optional(),
required: z.boolean().optional(),
format: z.enum(['text', 'email', 'uri', 'uuid', 'date', 'date-time', 'password']).optional(),
minLength: z.number().optional(),
maxLength: z.number().optional(),
pattern: z.string().optional(),
placeholder: z.string().optional(),
defaultValue: z.string().optional(),
}),
},
NumberField: {
description: 'Number input field',
props: z.object({
name: z.string(),
label: z.string(),
description: z.string().optional(),
required: z.boolean().optional(),
type: z.enum(['integer', 'number']).optional(),
minimum: z.number().optional(),
maximum: z.number().optional(),
defaultValue: z.number().optional(),
}),
},
BooleanField: {
description: 'Boolean toggle field',
props: z.object({
name: z.string(),
label: z.string(),
description: z.string().optional(),
defaultValue: z.boolean().optional(),
}),
},
EnumField: {
description: 'Enum selection field',
props: z.object({
name: z.string(),
label: z.string(),
description: z.string().optional(),
required: z.boolean().optional(),
options: z.array(z.object({
value: z.string(),
label: z.string().optional(),
})),
defaultValue: z.string().optional(),
}),
},
ObjectField: {
description: 'Nested object group',
props: z.object({
name: z.string(),
label: z.string(),
description: z.string().optional(),
collapsible: z.boolean().optional(),
}),
},
},
actions: {
submit: {
description: 'Submit form to API endpoint',
params: z.object({ operationId: z.string() }),
},
reset: {
description: 'Reset form to defaults',
params: z.object({}),
},
},
});
```
## Convert OpenAPI Schema to Spec
Transform OpenAPI schemas into json-render specs by recursively walking the schema properties and mapping each type to the corresponding catalog component. The converter handles nested objects, enums, arrays, and all primitive types.
## Usage Example
```tsx
'use client';
import { OpenAPIForm } from './openapi-form';
import { operationToSpec } from './openapi-to-spec';
// Your OpenAPI schema (typically loaded from your API)
const createUserSchema = {
type: 'object',
required: ['email', 'name'],
properties: {
name: { type: 'string', description: "User's full name" },
email: { type: 'string', format: 'email', description: "User's email" },
age: { type: 'integer', minimum: 0, maximum: 150 },
role: { type: 'string', enum: ['admin', 'user', 'guest'], default: 'user' },
},
};
// Convert to spec
const spec = operationToSpec(
'createUser',
'POST',
'/api/users',
createUserSchema,
'Create User',
'Add a new user to the system',
);
export function CreateUserForm() {
const handleSubmit = async (data: Record<string, unknown>) => {
const response = await fetch('/api/users', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify(data),
});
if (response.ok) {
console.log('User created!');
}
};
return <OpenAPIForm spec={spec} onSubmit={handleSubmit} />;
}
```
## Auto-generating from OpenAPI Document
Load and parse an OpenAPI document to generate forms for all operations:
```typescript
import SwaggerParser from '@apidevtools/swagger-parser';
import { operationToSpec } from './openapi-to-spec';
export async function loadOpenAPISpecs(specUrl: string) {
const api = await SwaggerParser.dereference(specUrl);
const specs: Record<string, any> = {};
for (const [path, methods] of Object.entries(api.paths)) {
for (const [method, operation] of Object.entries(methods)) {
if (!operation.requestBody?.content?.['application/json']?.schema) continue;
const schema = operation.requestBody.content['application/json'].schema;
const operationId = operation.operationId || `${method}_${path.replace(/\//g, '_')}`;
specs[operationId] = operationToSpec(
operationId,
method,
path,
schema,
operation.summary,
operation.description,
);
}
}
return specs;
}
// Usage
const specs = await loadOpenAPISpecs('https://api.example.com/openapi.json');
// specs.createUser, specs.updateUser, etc.
```

# Introduction
Predictable. Guardrailed. Fast. Let users generate dashboards, widgets, apps, and data visualizations from prompts.
## What is json-render?
json-render lets end users generate UI from natural language prompts — safely constrained to components you define. You set the guardrails: what components exist, what props they take, what actions are available. AI generates JSON that matches your schema, and your components render it natively.
## Why json-render?
### Guardrailed
AI can only use components in your catalog. No arbitrary code generation.
### Predictable
JSON output matches your schema, every time. Actions are declared by name, you control what they do.
### Fast
Stream and render progressively as the model responds. No waiting for completion.
## How it works
1. Define the guardrails — what components, actions, and data bindings AI can use
2. Users prompt — end users describe what they want in natural language
3. AI generates JSON — output is always predictable, constrained to your catalog
4. Render fast — stream and render progressively as the model responds

export const metadata = { title: "Quick Start" }
# Quick Start
Get up and running with json-render in 5 minutes.
## 1. Define your catalog
Create a catalog that defines what components AI can use:
```typescript
// lib/catalog.ts
import { defineCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { schema } from '@json-render/react';
import { z } from 'zod';
export const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: {
Card: {
props: z.object({
title: z.string(),
description: z.string().nullable(),
}),
slots: ["default"],
description: "Container card with optional title",
},
Button: {
props: z.object({
label: z.string(),
action: z.string().nullable(),
}),
description: "Clickable button that triggers an action",
},
Text: {
props: z.object({
content: z.string(),
}),
description: "Text paragraph",
},
},
actions: {
submit: {
params: z.object({ formId: z.string() }),
description: "Submit a form",
},
navigate: {
params: z.object({ url: z.string() }),
description: "Navigate to a URL",
},
},
});
```
## 2. Define your components
Use `defineRegistry` to map catalog types to React components. Each component receives type-safe `props`, `children`, and `emit`:
```tsx
// lib/registry.tsx
import { defineRegistry } from '@json-render/react';
import { catalog } from './catalog';
export const { registry } = defineRegistry(catalog, {
components: {
Card: ({ props, children }) => (
<div className="p-4 border rounded-lg">
<h2 className="font-bold">{props.title}</h2>
{props.description && (
<p className="text-gray-600">{props.description}</p>
)}
{children}
</div>
),
Button: ({ props, emit }) => (
<button
className="px-4 py-2 bg-blue-500 text-white rounded"
onClick={() => emit?.("press")}
>
{props.label}
</button>
),
Text: ({ props }) => (
<p>{props.content}</p>
),
},
});
```
## 3. Create an API route
Set up a streaming API route for AI generation:
```typescript
// app/api/generate/route.ts
import { streamText } from 'ai';
import { catalog } from '@/lib/catalog';
export async function POST(req: Request) {
const { prompt } = await req.json();
// Generate system prompt from catalog
const systemPrompt = catalog.prompt();
const result = streamText({
model: 'anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5',
system: systemPrompt,
prompt,
});
return result.toTextStreamResponse();
}
```
## 4. Render the UI
Use providers and the `Renderer` with your registry to display AI-generated UI:
```tsx
// app/page.tsx

# Registry
Register React components and action handlers to bring your catalog to life.
## defineRegistry
Use `defineRegistry` to create a type-safe registry from your catalog. Pass your components, actions, or both in a single call:
```tsx
import { defineRegistry } from '@json-render/react';
import { myCatalog } from './catalog';
export const { registry, handlers, executeAction } = defineRegistry(myCatalog, {
components: {
Card: ({ props, children }) => (
<div className="card">
<h2>{props.title}</h2>
{props.description && <p>{props.description}</p>}
{children}
</div>
),
Button: ({ props, onAction }) => (
<button onClick={() => onAction?.({ name: props.action })}>
{props.label}
</button>
),
},
actions: {
submit_form: async (params, setState) => {
const res = await fetch('/api/submit', {
method: 'POST',
body: JSON.stringify(params),
});
const result = await res.json();
setState((prev) => ({ ...prev, formResult: result }));
},
export_data: async (params) => {
const blob = await generateExport(params.format);
downloadBlob(blob, `export.${params.format}`);
},
},
});
```
The returned object contains:
- `registry` - component registry for `<Renderer />`
- `handlers` - factory for ActionProvider-compatible handlers
- `executeAction` - imperative action dispatch (for use outside the React tree)
## Component Props
Each component in the registry receives a `ComponentContext` object:
```typescript
interface ComponentContext {
props: T; // Type-safe props from your catalog
children?: React.ReactNode; // Rendered children (for slot components)
onAction?: (action: ActionTrigger) => void; // Dispatch an action
loading?: boolean; // Whether the renderer is in a loading state
}
```
Props are automatically inferred from your catalog, so `props.title` is typed as `string` if your catalog defines it that way.
## Action Handlers
Instead of AI generating arbitrary code, it declares *intent* by name. Your application provides the implementation. This is a core guardrail.
### Defining Actions
Define available actions in your catalog:
```typescript
import { defineCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { schema } from '@json-render/react';
import { z } from 'zod';
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: { /* ... */ },
actions: {
submit_form: {
params: z.object({
formId: z.string(),
}),
description: 'Submit a form',
},
export_data: {
params: z.object({
format: z.enum(['csv', 'pdf', 'json']),
}),
},
navigate: {
params: z.object({
url: z.string(),
}),
},
},
});
```
### Implementing Action Handlers
Action handlers receive `(params, setState, data)` and are defined inside `defineRegistry`:
```tsx
export const { handlers, executeAction } = defineRegistry(catalog, {
actions: {
submit_form: async (params, setState) => {
const response = await fetch('/api/submit', {
method: 'POST',
body: JSON.stringify({ formId: params.formId }),
});
const result = await response.json();
setState((prev) => ({ ...prev, formResult: result }));
},
export_data: async (params) => {
const blob = await generateExport(params.format);
downloadBlob(blob, `export.${params.format}`);
},
navigate: (params) => {
window.location.href = params.url;
},
},
});
```
## Using Data Binding
Use hooks inside your registry components to read and write data:
```tsx
import { useStateStore } from '@json-render/react';
import { getByPath } from '@json-render/core';
// Inside defineRegistry components:
Metric: ({ props }) => {
const { data } = useStateStore();
const value = getByPath(data, props.valuePath);
return (
<div className="metric">
<span className="label">{props.label}</span>
<span className="value">{formatValue(value)}</span>
</div>
);
},
TextField: ({ props }) => {
const { data, set } = useStateStore();
const value = getByPath(data, props.valuePath) as string;
return (
<input
value={value || ''}
onChange={(e) => set(props.valuePath, e.target.value)}
placeholder={props.placeholder}
/>
);
},
```
## Using the Renderer
Wire everything together with providers and the `<Renderer />` component:
```tsx
import { useMemo, useRef } from 'react';
import {
Renderer,
StateProvider,
VisibilityProvider,
ActionProvider,
} from '@json-render/react';
import { registry, handlers } from './registry';
function App({ spec, data, setState }) {
const dataRef = useRef(data);
const setStateRef = useRef(setState);
dataRef.current = data;
setStateRef.current = setState;
const actionHandlers = useMemo(
() => handlers(() => setStateRef.current, () => dataRef.current),
[],
);
return (
<StateProvider initialState={data}>
<VisibilityProvider>
<ActionProvider handlers={actionHandlers}>
<Renderer spec={spec} registry={registry} />
</ActionProvider>
</VisibilityProvider>
</StateProvider>
);
}
```

# Schemas
Schemas define the structure and validation rules for your UI specs.
## What is a Schema?
A schema defines the JSON structure that describes your UI. It includes:
- **Element structure** — How components are nested and referenced
- **Property types** — What props each component accepts
- **Data binding syntax** — How to reference dynamic data
- **Action format** — How user interactions are defined
## Schema-Agnostic by Design
json-render can work with any JSON schema. `@json-render/core` provides the primitives to define catalogs and renderers for any format:
- **@json-render/react** — The built-in flat element tree schema
- **[A2UI](/docs/a2ui)** — Google's Agent-to-User Interaction protocol
- **[Adaptive Cards](/docs/adaptive-cards)** — Microsoft's platform-agnostic UI format
- **AG-UI** — CopilotKit's Agent User Interaction Protocol
- **OpenAPI/Swagger** — API documentation schemas for dynamic forms
- **Custom schemas** — Design your own format tailored to your domain
See the [Custom Schema guide](/docs/custom-schema) to learn how to implement support for any schema.
## Built-in Schema
`@json-render/react` uses a flat element tree schema with a root key and elements map:
```json
{
"root": "card-1",
"elements": {
"card-1": {
"type": "Card",
"props": { "title": "Dashboard" },
"children": ["text-1", "button-1"]
},
"text-1": {
"type": "Text",
"props": { "content": "Welcome, $data.user.name" },
"children": []
},
"button-1": {
"type": "Button",
"props": { "label": "Click me" },
"children": []
}
}
}
```
## Schema Components
### Element Structure
In the built-in schema, each element in the elements map has this structure:
```typescript
interface Element {
type: string; // Component type from catalog
props: Record<string, any>; // Component properties
children: string[]; // Array of child element keys
visible?: VisibilityRule; // Conditional display
}
```
### Data Binding Syntax
Reference dynamic data using the `$data` prefix in props:
```json
{
"type": "Text",
"props": {
"content": "$data.user.name",
"count": "$data.items.length"
},
"children": []
}
```
### Action Format
Actions are defined in the catalog and referenced from components. The renderer handles action execution:
```typescript
// In your catalog
actions: {
navigate: {
params: z.object({ url: z.string() }),
description: 'Navigate to a URL',
},
apiCall: {
params: z.object({
endpoint: z.string(),
method: z.enum(['GET', 'POST', 'PUT', 'DELETE']),
}),
description: 'Make an API request',
},
}
```
## Custom Schemas
`@json-render/core` is schema-agnostic. You can define any JSON structure:
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
// Define your own element schema
const MyElementSchema = z.object({
component: z.string(),
settings: z.record(z.unknown()),
nested: z.array(z.lazy(() => MyElementSchema)).optional(),
});
// Define your own data binding format
const BoundValue = z.object({
literal: z.string().optional(),
path: z.string().optional(), // e.g., "/users/0/name"
});
// Define your own action format
const ActionSchema = z.object({
name: z.string(),
context: z.record(z.unknown()).optional(),
});
```
## Schema vs Catalog
The schema and catalog work together but serve different purposes:
- **Schema** — Defines the JSON structure (how elements are organized)
- **Catalog** — Defines available components and their props (what can be used)
The schema is the grammar; the catalog is the vocabulary.

# Specs
A spec is a JSON document that describes your UI.
## What is a Spec?
A spec (specification) is the actual JSON that describes a UI. It conforms to a [schema](/docs/schemas) and uses components from a [catalog](/docs/catalog). Specs can be:
- Generated by AI in real-time
- Stored in a database
- Streamed progressively from a server
- Hand-authored as JSON files
json-render is schema-agnostic — your specs can follow any JSON structure you choose.
## Example Specs
### Simple Spec
A basic spec using the `@json-render/react` schema. Note the flat structure with a `root` key and `elements` map:
```json
{
"root": "card-1",
"elements": {
"card-1": {
"type": "Card",
"props": { "title": "Welcome" },
"children": ["text-1"]
},
"text-1": {
"type": "Text",
"props": { "content": "Hello, $data.user.name!" },
"children": []
}
}
}
```
### Complex Spec
A more complex spec with multiple nested elements:
```json
{
"root": "card-1",
"elements": {
"card-1": {
"type": "Card",
"props": { "title": "User Profile", "padding": "md" },
"children": ["row-1", "button-1"]
},
"row-1": {
"type": "Row",
"props": { "gap": "md" },
"children": ["avatar-1", "stack-1"]
},
"avatar-1": {
"type": "Avatar",
"props": { "src": "$data.user.avatar", "alt": "$data.user.name" },
"children": []
},
"stack-1": {
"type": "Stack",
"props": { "gap": "sm" },
"children": ["name-text", "email-text"]
},
"name-text": {
"type": "Text",
"props": { "content": "$data.user.name", "variant": "heading" },
"children": []
},
"email-text": {
"type": "Text",
"props": { "content": "$data.user.email", "variant": "caption" },
"children": []
},
"button-1": {
"type": "Button",
"props": { "label": "Edit Profile" },
"children": []
}
}
}
```
### Block-Level Spec
A high-level spec using semantic blocks for page layouts:
```json
{
"root": "page",
"elements": {
"page": {
"type": "Page",
"props": {},
"children": ["header", "hero", "features", "footer"]
},
"header": {
"type": "Header",
"props": { "logo": "/logo.svg", "navItems": ["Products", "Pricing", "Docs"] },
"children": []
},
"hero": {
"type": "Hero",
"props": {
"title": "Build UIs with JSON",
"subtitle": "Let AI generate your interfaces",
"ctaLabel": "Get Started",
"ctaHref": "/docs"
},
"children": []
},
"features": {
"type": "Features",
"props": { "columns": 3 },
"children": ["feature-1", "feature-2", "feature-3"]
},
"feature-1": {
"type": "Feature",
"props": { "icon": "zap", "title": "Fast", "description": "Render UIs in milliseconds" },
"children": []
},
"feature-2": {
"type": "Feature",
"props": { "icon": "shield", "title": "Secure", "description": "Validate all specs against your catalog" },
"children": []
},
"feature-3": {
"type": "Feature",
"props": { "icon": "sparkles", "title": "AI-Ready", "description": "Generate prompts from your catalog" },
"children": []
},
"footer": {
"type": "Footer",
"props": { "copyright": "2025 Acme Inc", "links": ["Privacy", "Terms", "Contact"] },
"children": []
}
}
}
```
## Spec Anatomy
### Root and Elements
Every spec has a `root` key pointing to the entry element, and an `elements` map containing all elements:
```json
{
"root": "card-1",
"elements": {
"card-1": {
"type": "Card",
"props": { "title": "My Card" },
"children": ["text-1"]
},
"text-1": { ... }
}
}
```
### Element Structure
Each element in the map has a consistent shape:
```json
{
"type": "ComponentName",
"props": { "label": "Hello" },
"children": ["child-1", "child-2"]
}
```
- `type` — Component type from your catalog
- `props` — Component properties
- `children` — Array of child element keys
### Dynamic Data
Props can reference data using `$data` paths:
```json
{
"type": "Metric",
"props": {
"label": "Total Revenue",
"value": "$data.metrics.revenue",
"change": "$data.metrics.revenueChange"
},
"children": []
}
```
### Conditional Visibility
Control when elements appear using the `visible` property:
```json
{
"type": "Alert",
"props": {
"message": "You have unsaved changes"
},
"children": [],
"visible": {
"path": "$data.form.isDirty",
"operator": "eq",
"value": true
}
}
```
## Working with Specs
### Rendering a Spec
```tsx
import { Renderer } from '@json-render/react';
function MyApp({ spec, data }) {
return (
<Renderer
spec={spec}
data={data}
registry={registry}
/>
);
}
```
### Validating a Spec
```typescript
import { validate } from '@json-render/core';
const result = validate(spec, catalog);
if (!result.valid) {
console.error('Invalid spec:', result.errors);
}
```
### Streaming Specs
Specs can be streamed incrementally for progressive rendering:
```tsx
import { useUIStream } from '@json-render/react';
function GenerativeUI() {
const { spec, isStreaming } = useUIStream({
api: '/api/generate',
});
return (
<Renderer
spec={spec}
registry={registry}
loading={isStreaming}
/>
);
}
```
## Spec Sources
Specs can come from various sources:
- **AI Generation** — LLMs generate specs based on prompts and catalog
- **Database** — Store specs as JSON and load dynamically
- **API Response** — Server returns specs based on user/context
- **Static Files** — Pre-built specs for known UI patterns

# Streaming
Progressively render UI as AI generates it.
## SpecStream Format
json-render uses **SpecStream**, a JSONL-based streaming format where each line is a JSON patch operation that progressively builds your spec:
```json
{"op":"add","path":"/root","value":"root"}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/root","value":{"type":"Card","props":{"title":"Dashboard"},"children":["metric-1","metric-2"]}}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/metric-1","value":{"type":"Metric","props":{"label":"Revenue"}}}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/metric-2","value":{"type":"Metric","props":{"label":"Users"}}}
```
## useUIStream Hook
The hook handles parsing and state management:
```tsx
import { useUIStream } from '@json-render/react';
function App() {
const {
spec, // Current UI spec state
isStreaming, // True while streaming
error, // Any error that occurred
send, // Function to start generation
clear, // Function to reset spec and error
} = useUIStream({
api: '/api/generate',
onComplete: (spec) => {}, // Optional: called when streaming completes
onError: (error) => {}, // Optional: called when an error occurs
});
}
```
## Patch Operations (RFC 6902)
SpecStream uses [RFC 6902 JSON Patch](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6902) operations:
- `add` — Add a value at a path (creates or replaces for objects, inserts for arrays)
- `remove` — Remove the value at a path
- `replace` — Replace an existing value at a path
- `move` — Move a value from one path to another (requires `from`)
- `copy` — Copy a value from one path to another (requires `from`)
- `test` — Assert that a value at a path equals the given value
## Path Format
Paths use a key-based format for elements:
```bash
/root -> Root element
/root/children -> Children of root
/elements/card-1 -> Element with key "card-1"
/elements/card-1/children -> Children of card-1
```
## Server-Side Setup
Ensure your API route streams properly:
```typescript
import { streamText } from 'ai';
import { catalog } from '@/lib/catalog';
export async function POST(req: Request) {
const { prompt } = await req.json();
const result = streamText({
model: 'anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5',
system: catalog.prompt(),
prompt,
});
// Return as a streaming response
return result.toTextStreamResponse();
}
```
## Progressive Rendering
The Renderer automatically updates as the spec changes:
```tsx
function App() {
const { spec, isStreaming } = useUIStream({ api: '/api/generate' });
return (
<div>
{isStreaming && <LoadingIndicator />}
<Renderer spec={spec} registry={registry} loading={isStreaming} />
</div>
);
}
```
## Aborting Streams
Calling `send` again automatically aborts the previous request. Use `clear` to reset the spec and error state:
```tsx
function App() {
const { isStreaming, send, clear } = useUIStream({
api: '/api/generate',
});
return (
<div>
<button onClick={() => send('Create dashboard')}>
Generate
</button>
<button onClick={clear}>Reset</button>
</div>
);
}
```
## Low-Level SpecStream API
For custom streaming implementations, use the SpecStream compiler directly:
```typescript
import { createSpecStreamCompiler } from '@json-render/core';
// Create a compiler for your spec type
const compiler = createSpecStreamCompiler<MySpec>();
// Process streaming chunks from AI
async function processStream(reader: ReadableStreamDefaultReader) {
while (true) {
const { done, value } = await reader.read();
if (done) break;
const { result, newPatches } = compiler.push(value);
if (newPatches.length > 0) {
// Update UI with partial result
setSpec(result);
}
}
// Get final compiled result
return compiler.getResult();
}
```
### One-Shot Compilation
For non-streaming scenarios, compile entire SpecStream at once:
```typescript
import { compileSpecStream } from '@json-render/core';
const jsonl = `{"op":"add","path":"/root","value":{"type":"Card"}}
{"op":"add","path":"/root/props","value":{"title":"Hello"}}`;
const spec = compileSpecStream<MySpec>(jsonl);
// { root: { type: "Card", props: { title: "Hello" } } }

# Validation
Validate form inputs with built-in and custom functions.
## Built-in Validators
json-render includes common validation functions:
- `required` — Value must be non-empty
- `email` — Valid email format
- `minLength` — Minimum string length
- `maxLength` — Maximum string length
- `pattern` — Match a regex pattern
- `min` — Minimum numeric value
- `max` — Maximum numeric value
## Using Validation in JSON
```json
{
"type": "TextField",
"props": {
"label": "Email",
"valuePath": "/form/email",
"checks": [
{ "fn": "required", "message": "Email is required" },
{ "fn": "email", "message": "Invalid email format" }
],
"validateOn": "blur"
}
}
```
## Validation with Parameters
```json
{
"type": "TextField",
"props": {
"label": "Password",
"valuePath": "/form/password",
"checks": [
{ "fn": "required", "message": "Password is required" },
{
"fn": "minLength",
"args": { "length": 8 },
"message": "Password must be at least 8 characters"
},
{
"fn": "pattern",
"args": { "pattern": "[A-Z]" },
"message": "Must contain at least one uppercase letter"
}
]
}
}
```
## Custom Validation Functions
Define custom validators in your catalog:
```typescript
import { defineCatalog } from '@json-render/core';
import { schema } from '@json-render/react';
import { z } from 'zod';
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: { /* ... */ },
functions: {
isValidPhone: {
description: 'Validates phone number format',
},
isUniqueEmail: {
description: 'Checks if email is not already registered',
},
},
});
```
Then implement them in your ValidationProvider:
```tsx
import { ValidationProvider } from '@json-render/react';
function App() {
const customValidators = {
isValidPhone: (value) => {
const phoneRegex = /^\+?[1-9]\d{1,14}$/;
return phoneRegex.test(value);
},
isUniqueEmail: async (value) => {
const response = await fetch(`/api/check-email?email=${value}`);
const { available } = await response.json();
return available;
},
};
return (
<ValidationProvider functions={customValidators}>
{/* Your UI */}
</ValidationProvider>
);
}
```
## Using in Components
```tsx
import { useFieldValidation } from '@json-render/react';
function TextField({ props }) {
const { value, setValue, errors, validate } = useFieldValidation(
props.valuePath,
props.checks
);
return (
<div>
<label>{props.label}</label>
<input
value={value || ''}
onChange={(e) => setValue(e.target.value)}
onBlur={() => validate()}
/>
{errors.map((error, i) => (
<p key={i} className="text-red-500 text-sm">{error}</p>
))}
</div>
);
}
```
## Validation Timing
Control when validation runs with `validateOn`:
- `change` — Validate on every input change
- `blur` — Validate when field loses focus
- `submit` — Validate only on form submission

# Visibility
Conditionally show or hide components based on data, auth, or logic.
## VisibilityProvider
Wrap your app with VisibilityProvider to enable conditional rendering:
```tsx
import { VisibilityProvider } from '@json-render/react';
function App() {
return (
<StateProvider initialState={data}>
<VisibilityProvider>
{/* Components can now use visibility conditions */}
</VisibilityProvider>
</StateProvider>
);
}
```
## Path-Based Visibility
Show/hide based on data values:
```json
{
"type": "Alert",
"props": { "message": "Form has errors" },
"visible": { "path": "/form/hasErrors" }
}
// Visible when /form/hasErrors is truthy
```
## Auth-Based Visibility
Show/hide based on authentication state:
```json
{
"type": "AdminPanel",
"visible": { "auth": "signedIn" }
}
// Options: "signedIn", "signedOut", "admin", etc.
```
## Logic Expressions
Combine conditions with logic operators:
```json
// AND - all conditions must be true
{
"type": "SubmitButton",
"visible": {
"and": [
{ "path": "/form/isValid" },
{ "path": "/form/hasChanges" }
]
}
}
// OR - any condition must be true
{
"type": "HelpText",
"visible": {
"or": [
{ "path": "/user/isNew" },
{ "path": "/settings/showHelp" }
]
}
}
// NOT - invert a condition
{
"type": "WelcomeBanner",
"visible": {
"not": { "path": "/user/hasSeenWelcome" }
}
}
```
## Comparison Operators
```json
// Equal
{
"visible": {
"eq": [{ "path": "/user/role" }, "admin"]
}
}
// Greater than
{
"visible": {
"gt": [{ "path": "/cart/total" }, 100]
}
}
// Available: eq, ne, gt, gte, lt, lte
```
## Complex Example
```json
{
"type": "RefundButton",
"props": { "label": "Process Refund" },
"visible": {
"and": [
{ "auth": "signedIn" },
{ "eq": [{ "path": "/user/role" }, "support"] },
{ "gt": [{ "path": "/order/amount" }, 0] },
{ "not": { "path": "/order/isRefunded" } }
]
}
}
```
## Using in Components
```tsx
import { useIsVisible } from '@json-render/react';
// The Renderer handles visibility automatically, but you can also use the hook
function ConditionalContent({ condition, children }) {
const isVisible = useIsVisible(condition);
if (!isVisible) return null;
return <div>{children}</div>;
}
```

AVAILABLE COMPONENTS (22):
Layout:
- Card: { title?: string, description?: string, maxWidth?: "sm"|"md"|"lg"|"full", centered?: boolean } - Container card for content sections. Has children. Use for forms/content boxes, NOT for page headers.
- Stack: { direction?: "horizontal"|"vertical", gap?: "sm"|"md"|"lg" } - Flex container. Has children.
- Grid: { columns?: 2|3|4, gap?: "sm"|"md"|"lg" } - Grid layout. Has children. ALWAYS use mobile-first: set columns:1 and use className for larger screens.
- Divider: {} - Horizontal separator line
Form Inputs:
- Input: { label: string, name: string, type?: "text"|"email"|"password"|"number", placeholder?: string } - Text input
- Textarea: { label: string, name: string, placeholder?: string, rows?: number } - Multi-line text
- Select: { label: string, name: string, options: string[], placeholder?: string } - Dropdown select
- Checkbox: { label: string, name: string, checked?: boolean } - Checkbox input
- Radio: { label: string, name: string, options: string[] } - Radio button group
- Switch: { label: string, name: string, checked?: boolean } - Toggle switch
Actions:
- Button: { label: string, variant?: "primary"|"secondary"|"danger", actionText?: string } - Clickable button. actionText is shown in toast on click (defaults to label)
- Link: { label: string, href: string } - Anchor link
Typography:
- Heading: { text: string, level?: 1|2|3|4 } - Heading text (h1-h4)
- Text: { content: string, variant?: "body"|"caption"|"muted" } - Paragraph text
Data Display:
- Image: { src: string, alt: string, width?: number, height?: number } - Image
- Avatar: { src?: string, name: string, size?: "sm"|"md"|"lg" } - User avatar with fallback initials
- Badge: { text: string, variant?: "default"|"success"|"warning"|"danger" } - Status badge
- Alert: { title: string, message?: string, type?: "info"|"success"|"warning"|"error" } - Alert banner
- Progress: { value: number, max?: number, label?: string } - Progress bar (value 0-100)
- Rating: { value: number, max?: number, label?: string } - Star rating display
Charts:
- BarGraph: { title?: string, data: Array<{label: string, value: number}> } - Vertical bar chart
- LineGraph: { title?: string, data: Array<{label: string, value: number}> } - Line chart with points
OUTPUT FORMAT (JSONL):
{"op":"set","path":"/root","value":"element-key"}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/key","value":{"key":"...","type":"...","props":{...},"children":[...]}}
ALL COMPONENTS support: className?: string[] - array of Tailwind classes for custom styling
RULES:
1. First line sets /root to root element key
2. Add elements with /elements/{key}
3. Children array contains string keys, not objects
4. Parent first, then children
5. Each element needs: key, type, props
6. Use className for custom Tailwind styling when needed
FORBIDDEN CLASSES (NEVER USE):
- min-h-screen, h-screen, min-h-full, h-full, min-h-dvh, h-dvh - viewport heights break the small render container
- bg-gray-50, bg-slate-50 or any page background colors - container already has background
MOBILE-FIRST RESPONSIVE:
- ALWAYS design mobile-first. Single column on mobile, expand on larger screens.
- Grid: Use columns:1 prop, add className:["sm:grid-cols-2"] or ["md:grid-cols-3"] for larger screens
- DO NOT put page headers/titles inside Card - use Stack with Heading directly
- Horizontal stacks that may overflow should use className:["flex-wrap"]
- For forms (login, signup, contact): Card should be the root element, NOT wrapped in a centering Stack
EXAMPLE (Blog with responsive grid):
{"op":"set","path":"/root","value":"page"}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/page","value":{"key":"page","type":"Stack","props":{"direction":"vertical","gap":"lg"},"children":["header","posts"]}}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/header","value":{"key":"header","type":"Stack","props":{"direction":"vertical","gap":"sm"},"children":["title","desc"]}}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/title","value":{"key":"title","type":"Heading","props":{"text":"My Blog","level":1}}}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/desc","value":{"key":"desc","type":"Text","props":{"content":"Latest posts","variant":"muted"}}}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/posts","value":{"key":"posts","type":"Grid","props":{"columns":1,"gap":"md","className":["sm:grid-cols-2","lg:grid-cols-3"]},"children":["post1"]}}
{"op":"add","path":"/elements/post1","value":{"key":"post1","type":"Card","props":{"title":"Post Title"},"children":["excerpt"]}}

Handle user interactions safely with named actions.
</p>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Why Named Actions?</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
Instead of AI generating arbitrary code, it declares <em>intent</em> by
name. Your application provides the implementation. This is a core
guardrail.
</p>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Defining Actions</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
Define available actions in your catalog:
</p>
<Code lang="typescript">{`const catalog = createCatalog({

<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">ActionProvider</h2>

<h1 className="text-3xl font-bold mb-4">Code Export</h1>
<p className="text-muted-foreground mb-8">
Export generated UI as standalone code for your framework.
</p>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Overview</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
While json-render is designed for dynamic rendering, you can export
generated UI as static code. The code generation is intentionally
project-specific so you have full control over:
</p>
<ul className="list-disc list-inside text-sm text-muted-foreground space-y-2 mb-8">
<li>Component templates (standalone, no json-render dependencies)</li>
<li>Package.json and project structure</li>
<li>Framework-specific patterns (Next.js, Remix, etc.)</li>
<li>How data is passed to components</li>
</ul>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Architecture</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
Code export is split into two parts:
</p>
<h3 className="text-lg font-semibold mt-8 mb-4">
1. @json-render/codegen (utilities)
</h3>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
Framework-agnostic utilities for building code generators:
</p>
<Code lang="typescript">{`import {
traverseTree, // Walk the UI tree
collectUsedComponents, // Get all component types used
collectDataPaths, // Get all data binding paths
collectActions, // Get all action names
serializeProps, // Convert props to JSX string
} from '@json-render/codegen';`}</Code>
<h3 className="text-lg font-semibold mt-8 mb-4">
2. Your Project (generator)
</h3>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
Custom code generator specific to your project and framework:
</p>
<Code lang="typescript">{`// lib/codegen/generator.ts
import { collectUsedComponents, serializeProps } from '@json-render/codegen';
export function generateNextJSProject(tree: UITree): GeneratedFile[] {
const components = collectUsedComponents(tree);
return [
{ path: 'package.json', content: '...' },
{ path: 'app/page.tsx', content: '...' },
// ... component files
];
}`}</Code>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">
Example: Next.js Export
</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
See the dashboard example for a complete implementation that exports:
</p>
<ul className="list-disc list-inside text-sm text-muted-foreground space-y-2 mb-4">
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">package.json</code> - Dependencies
and scripts
</li>
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">tsconfig.json</code> - TypeScript
config
</li>
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">next.config.js</code> - Next.js

</li>
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">app/layout.tsx</code> - Root layout
</li>

<li>
<code className="text-foreground">app/page.tsx</code> - Generated page

</li>
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">components/ui/*.tsx</code> -
Standalone components
</li>
</ul>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">
Standalone Components
</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
The exported components are standalone with no json-render dependencies.
They receive data as props instead of using hooks:
</p>
<Code lang="tsx">{`// Generated component (standalone)
interface MetricProps {
label: string;
valuePath: string;
data?: Record<string, unknown>;
}
export function Metric({ label, valuePath, data }: MetricProps) {
const value = data ? getByPath(data, valuePath) : undefined;
return (
<div>
<span>{label}</span>
<span>{formatValue(value)}</span>
</div>
);
}`}</Code>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Using the Utilities</h2>
<h3 className="text-lg font-semibold mt-8 mb-4">traverseTree</h3>
<Code lang="typescript">{`import { traverseTree } from '@json-render/codegen';
traverseTree(tree, (element, depth, parent) => {
console.log(' '.repeat(depth * 2) + element.type);
});`}</Code>
<h3 className="text-lg font-semibold mt-8 mb-4">collectUsedComponents</h3>
<Code lang="typescript">{`import { collectUsedComponents } from '@json-render/codegen';
const components = collectUsedComponents(tree);
// Set { 'Card', 'Metric', 'Chart', 'Table' }
// Generate only the needed component files
for (const component of components) {
files.push({
path: \`components/ui/\${component.toLowerCase()}.tsx\`,
content: componentTemplates[component],
});
}`}</Code>
<h3 className="text-lg font-semibold mt-8 mb-4">serializeProps</h3>
<Code lang="typescript">{`import { serializeProps } from '@json-render/codegen';
const propsStr = serializeProps({
title: 'Dashboard',
columns: 3,
disabled: true,
});
// 'title="Dashboard" columns={3} disabled'`}</Code>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Try It</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">

json-render lets end users generate UI from natural language prompts —

Progressively render UI as AI generates it.
</p>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">How Streaming Works</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
json-render uses JSONL (JSON Lines) streaming. As AI generates, each
line represents a patch operation:
</p>
<Code lang="json">{`{"op":"set","path":"/root","value":{"key":"root","type":"Card","props":{"title":"Dashboard"}}}
{"op":"add","path":"/root/children","value":{"key":"metric-1","type":"Metric","props":{"label":"Revenue"}}}
{"op":"add","path":"/root/children","value":{"key":"metric-2","type":"Metric","props":{"label":"Users"}}}`}</Code>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">useUIStream Hook</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
The hook handles parsing and state management:
</p>
<Code lang="tsx">{`import { useUIStream } from '@json-render/react';
function App() {
const {
tree, // Current UI tree state
isLoading, // True while streaming
error, // Any error that occurred
generate, // Function to start generation
abort, // Function to cancel streaming
} = useUIStream({
endpoint: '/api/generate',
});
}`}</Code>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Patch Operations</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
Supported operations:
</p>
<ul className="list-disc list-inside text-sm text-muted-foreground space-y-2 mb-4">
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">set</code> — Set the value at a path
(creates if needed)
</li>
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">add</code> — Add to an array at a
path
</li>
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">replace</code> — Replace value at a
path
</li>
<li>
<code className="text-foreground">remove</code> — Remove value at a
path
</li>
</ul>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Path Format</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
Paths use a key-based format for elements:
</p>
<Code lang="bash">{`/root -> Root element
/root/children -> Children of root
/elements/card-1 -> Element with key "card-1"
/elements/card-1/children -> Children of card-1`}</Code>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">Server-Side Setup</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
Ensure your API route streams properly:
</p>
<Code lang="typescript">{`export async function POST(req: Request) {

'Cache-Control': 'no-cache',
},
});
}`}</Code>
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mt-12 mb-4">
Progressive Rendering
</h2>
<p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground mb-4">
