# Posts–Stats

<p className="excerpt">A temporary parking spot for components shared between the Posts (<code>apps/posts</code>) and Stats (<code>apps/stats</code>) apps until they merge. Not a pattern layer.</p>

## Why this exists

The Posts and Stats apps were split apart by an earlier architectural decision that is being reversed. While they're still separate, some components need to be shared between them — and those are post-analytics-specific, so they don't qualify as real Shade patterns ([Layers](?path=/docs/overview-layers--docs)).

Today this folder holds [`PostShareModal`](?path=/docs/posts-stats-postsharemodal--docs).

## Usage

```tsx
import {PostShareModal} from '@tryghost/shade/posts-stats';
```

The separate `@tryghost/shade/posts-stats` entrypoint is deliberate — it makes the temporary status visible at the call site so the eventual cleanup is mechanical.

## When this category goes away

When the Posts and Stats apps merge, this folder and its entrypoint disappear and the components move into the merged app.

## Don't add things here that are

- **Shared across 3+ apps** — that's a real Shade Pattern. Apply the [promotion rules](?path=/docs/overview-layers--docs) and add under `patterns/`.
- **Shared between two apps that aren't Posts and Stats** — this folder is named for one historical situation. Don't generalise it.
