## Usage [#usage]

```tsx
import {
  XPost,
  XPostActions,
  XPostAvatar,
  XPostContent,
  XPostHeader,
  XPostText,
} from "@/components/ui/x-post";
```

```tsx
<XPost>
  <div className="flex gap-3">
    <XPostAvatar />
    <XPostContent>
      <XPostHeader />
      <XPostText />
      <XPostActions />
    </XPostContent>
  </div>
</XPost>
```

## Composition [#composition]

Use the following composition to build an `XPost`:

```text
XPost
├── XPostAvatar
└── XPostContent
    ├── XPostHeader
    ├── XPostText
    └── XPostActions
```

## OpenUI Integration [#openui-integration]

Install the OpenUI React packages.

```bash
pnpm add @openuidev/react-lang zod
```

Add `XPost` to a component library and map it to the installed component.

```tsx showLineNumbers
import { createLibrary, defineComponent } from "@openuidev/react-lang";
import { z } from "zod/v4";

import {
  XPost,
  XPostActions,
  XPostAvatar,
  XPostContent,
  XPostHeader,
  XPostText,
} from "@/components/ui/x-post";

const OpenUIXPost = defineComponent({
  name: "XPost",
  description: "X (Twitter) post card with engagement metrics.",
  props: z.object({}),
  component: () => (
    <XPost>
      <div className="flex gap-3">
        <XPostAvatar />
        <XPostContent>
          <XPostHeader />
          <XPostText />
          <XPostActions />
        </XPostContent>
      </div>
    </XPost>
  ),
});

export const x_postLibrary = createLibrary({
  root: "XPost",
  components: [OpenUIXPost],
});
```

For richer generated compositions, define the child primitives separately and connect them with `.ref` fields. See [Defining Components](https://www.openui.com/docs/openui-lang/defining-components) in the OpenUI documentation.

## json-render Integration [#json-render-integration]

Install the json-render React packages.

```bash
pnpm add @json-render/core @json-render/react zod
```

Add `XPost` to a component catalog and map it to the installed component.

```tsx
import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core";
import { defineRegistry } from "@json-render/react";
import { schema } from "@json-render/react/schema";
import { z } from "zod";

import {
  XPost,
  XPostActions,
  XPostAvatar,
  XPostContent,
  XPostHeader,
  XPostText,
} from "@/components/ui/x-post";

export const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
  components: {
    XPost: {
      props: z.object({}),
      description: "X (Twitter) post card with engagement metrics.",
    },
  },
});

export const { registry } = defineRegistry(catalog, {
  components: {
    XPost: () => (
      <XPost>
        <div className="flex gap-3">
          <XPostAvatar />
          <XPostContent>
            <XPostHeader />
            <XPostText />
            <XPostActions />
          </XPostContent>
        </div>
      </XPost>
    ),
  },
});
```

Use `catalog.prompt()` to constrain model output, then render the generated spec with the json-render React `Renderer`. See the [json-render Quick Start](https://json-render.dev/docs/quick-start) for the provider and streaming setup.
