Summary

Updates the '5 Tips for Building MCP Apps That Work' blog post with two corrections:

Changes

  1. Renamed 'Guest UI' / 'widget' to 'View' - This is now the official terminology in the MCP Apps spec

    • Updated all prose references from 'Guest UI' to 'View'
    • Updated 'widget hydration' to 'View hydration'
    • Updated dialogue example to use 'View' instead of 'Guest UI'
  2. Added toolInputs streaming info to Tip 3 - Added a note explaining that toolInputs are sent/streamed into the View even before tool execution completes, enabling partial loading states

Note

Code example file names (like cocktail-recipe-widget.html) were intentionally left unchanged as they are just example paths, not terminology.

…ing info

- Rename 'Guest UI' and 'widget' to 'View' to match official MCP Apps terminology
- Add note about toolInputs being streamed to View before tool execution completes

Pull request overview

This PR updates the MCP Apps blog post to align terminology with the current MCP Apps spec and clarifies how toolInputs streaming can be used for better loading states in Views.

Changes:

  • Renamed references from "Guest UI"/"widget" to "View" in the prose and dialogue examples to match official MCP Apps terminology.
  • Updated "widget hydration" to "View hydration" and clarified that the React side "View" is being hydrated.
  • Added an explanation in Tip 3 that toolInputs are sent/streamed into the View before tool execution completes, enabling partial loading states.
