Slot

Add a Slot property to your component so designers can insert any child component

Prop definition

Define the Slot prop in your Webflow code component with a name. Optionally, you can add a group and tooltip text.

props.Slot({
    name: string,
    group?: string,
    tooltip?: string,
})

Properties

• name: The name for the property.
• group: The group for this property. (optional)
• tooltip: The tooltip for the property. (optional)

Example

import { declareComponent } from '@webflow/react';
import { props } from '@webflow/data-types';
import { MyComponent } from "./MyComponent";
export default declareComponent(MyComponent, {
    name: "MyComponent",
    description: "A component with a Slot property",
    props: {
        children: props.Slot({
            name: "Content",
            group: "Content"
        })
    }
