Slots

A slot allows for any type of element or markup to be passed into and rendered within a web component. This creates more flexibility than using a prop which must take a specific type of data.

Content can be slotted into a component by adding it as a top-level child of the component.

Slots can have a name to identify them. These specify which slot the content will be inserted into, and therefore where it will be rendered and how it will be used within the component. The name of the slot to be used can be specified by passing it via a slot attribute on the slotted content.

Name	Description
Slot caption	Content will be rendered above Crown Copyright.
Slot description	Content will be rendered at the top of the footer.
Slot link	Content will be rendered between description and logos.
Slot logo	Content will be rendered underneath footer links.
