The component, rendering

Real data, the shipped component. Switch the theme to check the claims the spec makes below.

Preview

The four-layer spec

"Last synced 12m ago · Retry". Appears on any surface showing cached or offline data. Dims the affected values to 0.7.

Stale financial data presented as current is the most dangerous state in the product. This component exists so that state is impossible to miss.

Lifted verbatim from System & states. The doc and this page are the same paragraphs, so they cannot disagree.

A component is specified in one place, defined in another, and running in a third. All three, from here.

Elsewhere in the system

Where StaleIndicator sits in the rest of the system — the live section it renders in, the calculators that compute what it displays, and the ledger payloads it is fed from.

Components are copied into your repository and meant to be edited — rounding policy, fiscal calendar and compliance copy differ per company.

Told when System & states changes

Components are copied into your repo, so a fix here does not reach you on its own. One email when a component in this family changes in a way that needs a migration — and nothing when it does not.
