Awesome. Thanks, Sam! I just subscribed so I can keep up with more info about Slots. I'm very curious to see more examples on how we can use this in real world scenarios. I'm still failing to wrap my head around how we can use it to make our components more robust and reusable, and how they're different from normal components.
They're not and apart from giving clients the ability to drag&drop and couple of other minor use cases, they're actually a net negative. They add more work (&layers of abstraction), make you site structure unreadable, fill your components panel with an endless list of single use components and worse of all, if you haven't memorised all your classes, they will slow you down considerably. Completely pointless
@@tancdiscovery9432 They're probably best used sparingly rather than for everything. At least for the moment. Adding slots for different types of potential CTA elements is quite useful.
@@tancdiscovery9432 I see your point. That's pretty much what makes it more confusing to me. There will be a lot of "abstract nesting", so it better be an amazing trade off. Hopefully Sam will find some nice examples to gives a better understanding of the feature. Pros and cons.
Really good demo, but as mention below, what is the real life use case? Why do this vs just using normal classes and just building out sections? :) New subscriber here, really good demo!
I must be missing something, if we want this amount of freedom to make components that different between each other, why make them components in the first place?
Unfortunately, I don't understand the point of the "Game Changer " in your title, 90% of the video was about components and never demonstrated 1 advantage of using slots, you never even show 1 real use case where it's really speed up your flow or something
It helps a lot if you design something and someone less tech savvy on your team or a client needs a bunch of premade options, which they can just drag and drop. There is a Build mode where they can do just this, but not change styles and design settings.
Thanks for the fast turn around, subscribed!

Thanks for subscribing! I’ll make another video on how they can be used in real world scenarios 👍🏻

This is a solid demo!
Thanks dude! Congrats on your channel too, I liked your recent comparisons video! 👍
Very good overview - love it! But can't see a huge benefit using slots 🤨
Thank you! It seems lots of people feel the same so I’ll do another video explaining why I think they’re useful 👍🏻

Thanks for subscribing! I’ll do another video on slots to go into more detail 👍🏻
