Details

Because Idyll is built on top of React, any React component can be used in Idyll. If you install a component using npm, Idyll will automatically be able to find it without any additional configuration.

For example:

$ npm install some-react-component

This could then be used in your markup as

[SomeReactComponent /]

Internally, this is equivalent to require('some-react-component'). If you need to access a property of the imported module, you can do it like this:

[SomeReactComponent.nested.Property /]

This is equivalent to require('some-react-component').nested.Property.
