Route page components each live in their own file ​

assertRouteComponentsInSeparateFiles requires every component attached to a route through component, loadComponent or a lazy import() to live outside the route-definition file. It also rejects two different routed page components sharing one common component file:

ts
export function keepRouteComponentsInSeparateFiles(
  graph: ArchitectureGraph,
) {
  assertRouteComponentsInSeparateFiles(graph.graph);
}

What it prevents ​

This keeps the page boundary explicit:

typescript
// pages.routes.ts
export const pagesRoutes = craftRoutes('pages', [
  {
    path: 'orders',
    loadComponent: () => import('./orders-page'),
  },
]);
typescript
// orders-page.ts
export const OrdersPage = craftComponent(/* ... */);

Putting both declarations in pages.routes.ts makes route files grow into feature modules. Putting OrdersPage and CustomersPage in one pages.components.ts file creates the same problem at the lazy boundary: the chunk is no longer organized around one page entry point.

The rule covers both eager route targets and lazy targets. A route collection may contain several routes, but each page component declaration still has its own source file. Child components rendered by a page are not route targets and are not restricted by this rule. Reusing the same component declaration from multiple routes is not treated as two page components.

The intended shape ​

Keep the route tree responsible for navigation and loading:

typescript
// account.routes.ts
export const accountRoutes = craftRoutes('account', [
  {
    path: 'profile',
    loadComponent: ({ withRetry }) =>
      withRetry(import('./profile-page')).then((module) => module.ProfilePage),
  },
]);

Keep the page implementation in its own file, with its own component dependencies and tests. loadChildren remains the right choice when a whole route collection should be lazy, while the collection's page components still follow this file boundary.

Failure message ​

The assertion reports the route, component and offending source file. Move each page component to its own sibling file, then keep the route's import literal so the router and bundler can discover the lazy boundary.
