# Reactive Data Client

It's set up when `package.json` has `@data-client/react` or `@data-client/vue` and the source wraps the app in

`DataProvider` (React) or installs `DataClientPlugin` (Vue); search the source for them.

## Not set up yet

Read `../data-client-setup/SKILL.md` (next to this one) and follow it. It isn't loaded on its own because it runs

installs; the user asking to add or use Data Client in this app is the go-ahead. If they only asked about Data

Client, answer and offer to set it up instead.

+ To only swap an HTTP client (axios, fetch, ky, superagent, got) for `@data-client/rest` endpoints, without a provider

+ or store changes, follow `../data-client-setup/references/data-client-rest-setup.md` instead.

## Set up

Load the skill for the work. If it isn't available by name but its package is installed, run

`npx --no data-client-skills` (`pnpm exec`, `yarn`) from the project root, which links the skills the installed packages

ship into the project's skill folder, then read `.claude/skills/<skill>/SKILL.md`.

| Work | Skill | Package |

|------|-------|---------|

| Entities, `Collection`, `Union`, `Query`, normalization | `data-client-schema` | `endpoint` |

| REST endpoints: `resource()`, `RestEndpoint` | `data-client-rest` | `rest` |

| React hooks: `useSuspense`, `useController`, `useLive`, `DataProvider` | `data-client-react` | `react` |

| Vue composables: `useSuspense`, `useController`, `DataClientPlugin` | `data-client-vue` | `vue` |

| Tests | `data-client-react-testing` or `data-client-vue-testing` | `react` or `vue` |

| WebSockets, SSE, polling, global side effects | `data-client-manager` | `core` |
