About react-flow-node-ts
A skill for creating React Flow node components with TypeScript types and store integration. It provides reusable templates and steps for registering nodes in an application.
Key features
- 01Node component template
- 02TypeScript definition template
- 03Placeholder-based customization
- 04Node registration workflow
- 05Integration and accessibility checks
Use cases
- 01Scaffold a new React Flow node
- 02Define typed node data
- 03Add a node to menus and canvas
- 04Review editing and connection behavior

React Flow Node
Create React Flow node components following established patterns with proper TypeScript types and store integration.
Quick Start
Copy templates from assets/ and replace placeholders:
{{NodeName}}→ PascalCase component name (e.g.,VideoNode){{nodeType}}→ kebab-case type identifier (e.g.,video-node){{NodeData}}→ Data interface name (e.g.,VideoNodeData)
Templates
- assets/template.tsx - Node component
- assets/types.template.ts - TypeScript definitions
Node Component Pattern
export const MyNode = memo(function MyNode({
id,
data,
selected,
width,
height,
}: MyNodeProps) {
const updateNode = useAppStore((state) => state.updateNode);
const canvasMode = useAppStore((state) => state.canvasMode);
return (
<>
<NodeResizer isVisible={selected && canvasMode === 'editing'} />
<div className="node-container">
<Handle type="target" position={Position.Top} />
{/* Node content */}
<Handle type="source" position={Position.Bottom} />
</div>
</>
);
});
Type Definition Pattern
export interface MyNodeData extends Record<string, unknown> {
title: string;
description?: string;
}
export type MyNode = Node<MyNodeData, 'my-node'>;
Template integration checks
These templates require the project-specific @/types, @/store, utility aliases and CSS variables; this bundle does not supply the application/store. Replace placeholders, verify NodeProps against installed @xyflow/react, and confirm updateNode merges node data rather than discarding sibling fields. Give editable inputs accessible labels plus nodrag/nowheel behavior as appropriate, and test keyboard editing, resize and connection state. Editing-mode UI visibility is not a server authorization boundary.
Integration Steps
- Add type to
src/frontend/src/types/index.ts - Create component in
src/frontend/src/components/nodes/ - Export from
src/frontend/src/components/nodes/index.ts - Add defaults in
src/frontend/src/store/app-store.ts - Register in canvas
nodeTypes - Add to AddBlockMenu and ConnectMenu
When to Use
This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
Limitations
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
