**Warning** from the compiler, while it builds your `.tsrx` files.

## What happened

Several components in one file use the same `shared()` value, and it has no scope. So every copy of the widget on the page shares one value.

Markless prints the message, the reason, and a suggestion:

```text
MARKLESS_SHARED_FAMILY_SCOPE_IMPLICIT: <length> components in this module resolve shared() "<definitionName>" (<components>), which is the shape of a widget family, but no scope is declared so it is page-scoped.
A page-scoped family gives every widget of that family on one page the same graph, so two of them move together. That is a real choice, but silence makes it a surprise.
Add { scope: 'widget' } to give each rendered widget its own graph.

```

Words in angle brackets change from case to case.

## How to fix it

Pass `{ scope: 'widget' }` to give each widget its own value. Pass `{ scope: 'page' }` if one value for the page is what you want.

If you accept the warning on purpose, put this comment on the line above it:

```tsrx
// markless-allow MARKLESS_SHARED_FAMILY_SCOPE_IMPLICIT: the reason you accept it
```
