Code Override

A JavaScript function that modifies component behavior without changing the component itself, enabling custom interactions and logic. Overrides let you add functionality like form validation, state management, or API calls while keeping components reusable. This separation of concerns keeps your component library clean while allowing page-specific customizations.
