1. Choose a backend
The bundled Worker + Rust/WASM backend is a useful default. A host-owned backend works too when it implements thebackend port.
2. Mount the provider once
<SpreadsheetUiProvider backend={backend}>
<SpreadsheetGrid sheetId={sheetId} viewport={viewport} />
</SpreadsheetUiProvider>3. Add capabilities deliberately
Keep authoritative workbook facts in the backend. Feature-local UI state belongs to atoms; consult theviewport andselection ownership guides before adding state.
