Frame helpers are building blocks to help you create frames quicker. You 100% can build Frames without them but they make certain patterns in Frames easier.
They are similar to the pre-defined types for controls.
The Frame Helpers are:
To use a Frame Helper in your project, import it from react-sim:
import { Grid, CanvasFrame, TimeSeries, Counter, Indicator } from 'react-sim';
Frame helpers are already connected with the Model, so if you use a Frame helper anywhere within a Model, it will receive the following props from that Model:
- cachedData,
 - data,
 - initData,
 - params,
 - results,
 - tick,
 - setData
 
It's also possible to get the corresponding component, i.e. without these props automatically provided by the Model.
Just add Component to your import:
import {GridComponent,CanvasFrameComponent,TimeSeriesComponent,CounterComponent,IndicatorComponent,} from 'react-sim';
