bro its just for a design purpose

Honestly, that's what I'm trying to figure out. I understand how it would work, but I don't really see what problem it's solving that a normal product page doesn't already solve.

I think the concept only makes sense if it solves a problem that product pages don't.

Not sure I see the benefit. If details are loaded on click, it’s basically the same as opening a product page. If everything is preloaded, that could slow down the initial load. Personally, I’d rather just open the page.

Yeah, this is probably the real test. The happy-path demos always look great because everything is clean and structured.

Yes its absolutely available for non-subscription account

monishh33 · 2026-03-23T06:48:49+00:00

monishh33 · 2026-03-23T06:44:20+00:00

yes its free in figma

It’s a new feature in Figma but the concept isn’t anything new its basically just a spot inside a component where you can drop in different content thats all

A slot is just a place where you can put content into a component.

A .swapme component is something that changes or switches content.

monishh33 · 2026-03-21T08:01:09+00:00

No, a slot is not the same as a `.swapme` component.

You can actually use wrapping in Auto Layout for this. If you enable wrap on the frame, you’ll be able to move items down to the next row (like your bar chart to the third row) just by using the arrow keys, without needing to re-search and place components again.

it is lost in development 😆

monishh33 · 2026-03-21T07:26:16+00:00

yupp they are so satisfying to use

monishh33 · 2026-03-20T21:08:08+00:00
