Key Concepts
- Constructor: Receives component, props, and options to mount overlays
- Deferred: Promise-like object with
confirmandcancelmethods for external control - Mount Options: Configuration for container, ID, index, and deferred instance
- Lifecycle: Components are destroyed after
durationends when deferred resolves/rejects - Imperative Usage:
defineOverlayandrenderOverlayfor callback-based invocation - Declarative Usage: Components can be used in templates/JSX with props
- Provider Pattern:
OverlaysProviderfor context inheritance - Dual Mode Support: Components work in both imperative and declarative modes
