Slot array

[aweell]

Goal

Discuss the possibility of a feature that allows any slot in Mística to behave as a stack of items with a divider, matching the current behaviour of the slot in the Community's Advanced Data Card

https://mistica-web.vercel.app/?path=/story/community-advanceddatacard--default&args=extra:3

Example:

Current data card vs Advanced data card slot handling

Context

The current problem is that with the newly release of the card ecosystem a full divider in a slot is something that is not easy to achieve (without custom styles).

We want to explore is this feature is something that only applies to cards or if it can be expanded to any slot in any component of the system (feedbacks, hero...), in the same way for example applied the array of descriptions to make new paragraphs in a description (feedbacks)

Impact

The impact should be to allow a new way to include slot arrays in components

Discussion Questions

• What are the difference between including an array of slots vs a stack of elements inside a single slot?
• Is the fullWidth divider something that applies to all usages of slots across all components (for example in the hero will not be fullWidth)
• Should the divider fullWidth be achieved in another way rather using an array? (A solution like a negative box)

Additional considerations

Você tem algum estudo sobre esse tema que possa compartilhar comigo? Estou fazendo uma exploração sobre como usar o Data Card para as aplicações que hoje são feitas com o Advanced Data Card.

Hi @annefranca, sorry for the delay, we are currently working on this topic, you can follow the WIP in the spec: https://www.figma.com/design/tKdPOfcUALzVIh5oizFbm7/branch/deMdUDOmP48JkXD2wTuvLm/%F0%9F%94%B8-Cards-Specs?m=auto&node-id=11118-12552&t=3ZZheCT5j2TiV7z7-1

No Advanced Data Card temos a possibilidade de adicionar múltiplos slots, na configuração do Figma temos 3 slots, certo? Como você está pensando em fazer essa aplicação no Data Card?

[aweell]

We'll try to keep what you have defined. We have in mind that at least 3 slots should be shown when multiple slots are configured.
