} from "@/components/ui/youtube-post";
```

## Composition [#composition]

Use the following composition to build an `YouTubePost`:

```text
YouTubePost
├── YouTubePostPlayer
└── YouTubePostInfo
    ├── YouTubePostAvatar
    ├── YouTubePostDetails
    └── YouTubePostMenu
```

## OpenUI Integration [#openui-integration]

Install the OpenUI React packages.

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

Add `YouTubePost` 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 {
  YouTubePost,
  YouTubePostAvatar,
  YouTubePostDetails,
  YouTubePostInfo,
  YouTubePostMenu,
  YouTubePostPlayer,
} from "@/components/ui/youtube-post";

const OpenUIYouTubePost = defineComponent({
  name: "YouTubePost",
  description: "YouTube video card with playable embed.",
  props: z.object({}),
  component: () => (
    <YouTubePost>
      <YouTubePostPlayer />
      <YouTubePostInfo>
        <div className="flex gap-3">
          <YouTubePostAvatar />
          <YouTubePostDetails />
          <YouTubePostMenu />
        </div>
      </YouTubePostInfo>
    </YouTubePost>
  ),
});

export const youtube_postLibrary = createLibrary({
  root: "YouTubePost",
  components: [OpenUIYouTubePost],
});
```

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 `YouTubePost` 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 {
  YouTubePost,
  YouTubePostAvatar,
  YouTubePostDetails,
  YouTubePostInfo,
  YouTubePostMenu,
  YouTubePostPlayer,
} from "@/components/ui/youtube-post";

export const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
  components: {
    YouTubePost: {
      props: z.object({}),
      description: "YouTube video card with playable embed.",
    },
  },
});

export const { registry } = defineRegistry(catalog, {
  components: {
    YouTubePost: () => (
      <YouTubePost>
        <YouTubePostPlayer />
        <YouTubePostInfo>
          <div className="flex gap-3">
            <YouTubePostAvatar />
            <YouTubePostDetails />
            <YouTubePostMenu />
          </div>
        </YouTubePostInfo>
      </YouTubePost>
    ),
  },
});
```

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.
