framework-interop

Development

The seven framework output packages and the boundaries Inkline lives on — exports contracts, peer-dep/version matrix, per-target capability gaps, idiom fidelity, and the styleframe upstream relationship. Use for ui/<framework> work, framework upgrades, and boundary coordination.

Framework interop

Inkline sits on two borders. Downstream: one compiled component must feel native in seven framework ecosystems. Upstream: every styled component consumes styleframe recipes. Both borders are trust surfaces — nothing crosses them silently degraded.

The seven crossings (`ui/<framework>/`)

Package	Storybook	Runtime peers	Notes
`@inkline/react`	:6006	react ≥18	reference target for e2e parity
`@inkline/vue`	:6007	vue ≥3	SFC `<script setup>` output
`@inkline/svelte`	:6008	svelte 5	runes (`$state`/`$derived`/`$bindable`)
`@inkline/solid`	:6009	solid-js	matches React pixel-exact today
`@inkline/angular`	:6010	angular 21	`ink-*` attribute selectors, `klass` input, SSR-verified
`@inkline/qwik`	:6011	qwik 2.0-beta	storybook-framework-qwik is a canary — see gaps
`@inkline/astro`	:6012	astro	static SSR — one-way binds, inert custom events

Anatomy is identical everywhere: src/index.ts is one line (export * from "../.inkline/index.ts"); .inkline/ (compiled components + barrels) and .styleframe/ are machine output — nobody edits them; hand-maintained surface is package.json, vite.config.ts, tsconfig.json, .storybook/. Exports map: . (styled), ./headless, ./stories, ./css, ./package.json — this map is the public contract; changing it is semver-major territory. prestorybook recompiles the source for that target so Storybook never shows stale components.

Framework versions are pinned in the pnpm-workspace.yaml catalog (React 19.2, Vue 3.5, Svelte 5.5x, Solid 1.9, Angular 21.2, Astro 6.4, Storybook 10.4 at snapshot). Framework upgrades are deliberate migrations: bump catalog → rebuild → conformance + visual parity → note behavior changes; when a new framework version changes the idiomatic output shape, that's a codegen change (coordinate with @atlas).

Idiom fidelity (the downstream promise)

Emitted code must read like a native wrote it. Enforcement: per-target conformance specs (typecheck + framework-native lint of emitted files — the framework ESLint configs exist in the repo only for this; the repo itself lints with oxlint) and the scenario layer's DOM equivalence. Known baseline: the Astro conformance-lint has ~74 pre-existing parse failures — not regressions.

Per-target capability gaps are documented, diagnosed, never silent — the pattern to preserve:

Astro is static: two-way binding degrades to one-way (INK0045), custom events are inert.
Qwik/Angular lack runtime slot presence: hasSlot compiles to true (INK0068) + the :empty CSS collapse convention.
Angular: kebab ink-* selectors, klass class-merge, host-collapse variants; native attrs (e.g. hidden) must be explicit base props — fallthrough breaks on wrapper variants.
Solid: undefined renders as "undefined" on native string props — sources coalesce with ?? "".
Qwik Storybook: output is correct (resumable componentQrls serve over HTTP) but storybook-framework-qwik (canary, Qwik 2.0-beta) resumes an empty container — an upstream integration issue, tracked, not a codegen bug.

A new gap must land as: compiler diagnostic (INKxxxx) + per-target note in docs + (where possible) a CSS/authoring convention that neutralizes it. Losing a capability quietly destroys consumer trust permanently.

The styleframe border (the upstream relationship)

Inkline is customer zero of styleframe — the relationship runs both ways:

Inbound: recipe/token breaking changes (axis renames, default changes) arrive with migration notes from the styleframe guild. Same-day triage: assess blast radius across .styleframe.ts files + recipe-prop types (XRecipeProps flows into component props!), land the migration, changeset the framework packages if emitted CSS changes.
Outbound: recipe gaps blocking the catalog (toast, combobox, date-picker, data-table…) are filed upstream with the component spec attached — Inkline's component API research is styleframe's best requirements document. Never fork a local one-off for a family upstream is about to ship.
Version bumps ride the catalog in pnpm-workspace.yaml; the styleframe first-party packages are deliberately excluded from pnpm's minimumReleaseAge guard (intentionally fresh, trusted).

Story ids are an interop contract too

The story generator (tooling/storybook) keeps story ids identical across all 7 Storybooks — the e2e visual-parity suite drives every framework by React's id list. Renaming a story meta/variant changes ids in seven places and invalidates parity baselines; treat it like an API rename (migration note, @gauntlet heads-up).
