Isolating Convex component schemas and data requires structuring self-contained modules with their own types and functions, then defining a clear export surface to prevent data leakage into the host application.

Structuring reusable Convex components requires organizing domain logic, UI hooks, and data access layers into self-contained directories with isolated schemas and explicit exports for cross-project consumption.

Schema isolation works by encapsulating component data structures and functions independently from the host application, ensuring self-contained schemas prevent data leakage and maintain strict separation between shared components and consuming projects.

TypeScript is used to author and export Convex components, providing strongly typed schemas, functions, and public API surfaces that ensure type safety when consuming components across different host applications.

You can package domain logic, UI hooks, and data access layers into shareable Convex components by encapsulating them with self-contained schemas and exporting a stable public API interface for cross-project consumption.

A limitation of sharing via Convex component exports is that consuming applications are restricted to the defined public API surface, preventing direct access to the component's isolated internal schemas and underlying data.
