Part 3 / Component composition / Named slots
The previous example contained a default slot, which renders the direct children of a component. Sometimes you will need more control over placement, such as with this <ContactCard>
. In those cases, we can use named slots.
In ContactCard.svelte
, add a name
attribute to each slot:
<article class="contact-card">
<h2>
<slot name="name">
<span class="missing">Unknown name</span>
</slot>
</h2>
<div class="address">
<slot name="address">
<span class="missing">Unknown address</span>
</slot>
</div>
<div class="email">
<slot name="email">
<span class="missing">Unknown email</span>
</slot>
</div>
</article>
Then, add elements with corresponding slot="..."
attributes inside the <ContactCard>
component:
<ContactCard>
<span slot="name">
P. Sherman
</span>
<span slot="address">
42 Wallaby Way<br>
Sydney
</span>
</ContactCard>
