Components Editor

If Alpha Features are enabled on your account, you will see the Component tab in the right-hand navigation bar of the BF editor.

In this Component Editor, you can create and edit the components you want to insert into your pages.

• You can view your component at the top of the editor. By turning on the 'Show Elements' option, you can view the structural elements of your component.

• You can write notes in the documentation and delete components from the General tab.

• You can edit your component's content in either the Component Schema tab using JSON, or in the HTML tab using the HTML editor.

• You can add mock data in the Dev Data Model tab.

• Lifecycle namedActions receive the component schema on action.schema (and action.options._componentSchema); pass schema explicitly in options for template-triggered actions if needed.

Note: If you are using model.somekey data, the model refers to the page model that contains this component.
