Recipes Overview
These recipes are the shortest path from “I understand the concepts” to “I can assemble a real screen.”
Use them when you do not want a full example app, but you also do not want to reverse-engineer an advanced showcase first.
Recipe lanes
| Recipe lane | Use it for | Page |

| Effects and refresh | button-to-message flow, periodic updates, notifications | Effects & Refresh Recipes |
| Data and workspaces | rails, grids, inspectors, denser record surfaces | Data & Workspace Recipes |
How to use the recipes
- start from the smallest recipe that matches your app shape
- keep your app state in
TesseraApp - promote local widget events into messages only when the screen starts getting real
- move into the flagship examples only after the recipe feels coherent
