JavaScript search framework component equivalences

This is for:

Developer

This table illustrates how out-of-the-box components in the Coveo Atomic and Headless libraries match the functionality of various JavaScript Search Framework components. If there’s no direct mapping to a Headless or Atomic component, a link to the relevant documentation to address the use case will be provided when possible. If a component is available in Headless but not in Atomic, you can still achieve the functionality by accessing Headless through Atomic.

In the Atomic and Headless libraries, certain components offer the same functionality as two or more JavaScript Search Framework components. For example, the Headless QuerySummary provides the same features as the JavaScript Search Framework QueryDuration and QuerySummary components.

Disclaimer

The JavaScript Search Framework and Atomic both operate as UI libraries. In contrast, Headless provides controllers and actions with which you can create your own, custom components, even when using Atomic. So, if no obvious Headless controller or Atomic component matches the functionality you want to replicate from a JavaScript Search Framework component, you can often implement your own.
