+# Component library
 
 In the [overview](create-component.md) article for creating components, you are introduced to components inside canvas app. As you create components inside an app, you can also create a library of components that can be reused. By creating a component library, app makers easily share and update one or more components with other makers.

 ## Create an example component library
 
 The steps to create components inside a component library are the same as creating components inside an app. You'll create a component library and then reuse the steps for creating components from [components overview example](create-component.md#create-an-example-component). Then you'll use the component library to provide the reusable components in a new app.

 ## Component library permissions
 
 Sharing a component library works the same way you share a canvas app. When you share a component library, you allow others to reuse the component library. Once shared, others can edit the component library and import components from this shared component library for creating and editing apps. If shared as a co-owner, a user can use, edit, and share a component library but not delete or change the owner.
 
 ## Known limitations

-- When a component is added to an app from the component library and the theme of the app is updated, the component becomes a local app component and is no longer associated with the master component in the component library.

 Components are reusable building blocks for canvas apps so that app makers can create custom controls to use inside an app, or across apps using a [component library](component-library.md). Components can use advanced features such as custom properties and enable complex capabilities. This article introduces component concepts and some examples.

 - You can't save data sources, forms, and data tables with components.
-- Collections in components aren't supported.
 - You can't insert a component into a gallery or a form (including SharePoint form).
-- A master instance of a component is a local master and scoped to the app. If you change a master instance, only copies of the component within the app will reflect the change. Copies in other apps will remain the same unless you import the component library again. All master instances in those apps will be automatically detected and updated.

+- If a component that you imported from another app is modified in the original app, you must manually import the component again in the consuming app to receive latest component changes. Use component libraries instead to work with [component updates](component-library.md#update-a-component-library) more efficiently.
 - Components don't support the [**UpdateContext**](./functions/function-updatecontext.md) function, but you can create and update variables in a component by using the [**Set**](functions/function-set.md) function. The scope of these variables is limited to the component, but you can access them from outside the component through custom output properties.

 A component can receive input values to emit or process data using custom input properties. In this article, you'll learn about working with such components expecting one or more input properties with a specific schema for the given table or record, and how to map the component input fields to the columns of the data source.
