Collection Management Panel
Documentation status: reference — see Maturity and evidence.
Scope: functional UI metadata, independent of any concrete widget toolkit.
Purpose
Provide common create, select, edit, and navigation actions around a published collection.
Contract
The component describes interaction intent, not a native UI class. A renderer may project the same metadata to web, desktop, mobile, or another supported target.
Typical metadata may identify:
- the bound field, object, collection, or action;
- display and interaction intent;
- validation or enabled/visible conditions;
- events published back to the page/view model.
Design rule
Keep business meaning in the model and view metadata. Target-specific rendering details belong to the renderer or application shell, not to the portable functional component contract.
