Squide Framework

Squide is a React modular application shell. Use only documented APIs.

Core Concepts

• Runtime: The FireflyRuntime instance is the backbone of a Squide application. Never instantiate directly — use initializeFirefly(), which wires up plugins, logging, and the module lifecycle.
• Modular Registration: Modules register routes, navigation items, and MSW handlers via a registration function, assembled by the host at bootstrapping.
• Public vs Protected Routes: Routes default to protected (rendered under ProtectedRoutes). Use registerPublicRoute() for public routes. Protected routes fetch both public and protected global data.
• Deferred Registrations: Navigation items dependent on remote data or feature flags use two-phase registration — return a function from the registration to defer items to a second phase.
